Now more than ever, the world is recognizing how strong women and girls are. How strong? In the early 1920s, Aboriginal Alaskan expeditioner Ada Blackjack survived for two years as a castaway on an uninhabited island in the Arctic Ocean before she was finally rescued. And she’s just one example. The Girl Who Rode a Shark: And Other Stories of Daring Women is a rousing collection of biographies focused on women and girls who have written, explored, or otherwise plunged headfirst into the pages of history. Undaunted by expectations, they made their mark by persevering in pursuit of their passions. The tales come from a huge variety of times and places, from a Canadian astronaut to an Indian secret agent and to a Balkan pirate queen who stood up to Ancient Rome. Author and activist Ailsa Ross gives readers a fun, informative piece of nonfiction that emphasizes the boundless potential of a new generation of women. Stunning portraits by artist Amy Blackwell accompany every biography in bold, vibrant colours.

Malibu. Zuma Beach. Sun. Sand. Palms. Orange trees. Hollywood. Freeways. These are just a few of the words that conjure a hint of the ambience of Los Angeles. The magic of this place that caused the Spanish dons to settle here continues to cast its spell on many of us. Now, however, the denizens of Los Angeles live day-to-day in a love-hate relationship with this old grande dame of a city. There are too many of us in too little space. We crowd the beaches, freeways, & the shopping malls. The city is visibly aging. While we fight her miasmic degeneration with our techno-skills & taxes, we dream of leaving her for greener, saner pastures. Some of us do leave for a while, but often her siren song brings us back. The cord that binds this collection of stories & poetry is a portrayal of what it FEELS like to live in The City of Angels. This book was written for those of us who live here & love it here as well as for those who will never have that opportunity. Selected by the Braille Foundation for the Blind to be recorded as a book on tape.
