Wednesday June 4, 2014 marked the the 95th anniversary of the passage of the 19th amendment to the Constitution, guaranteeing women the right to vote. The amendment was then ratified on August 18, 1920. The amendment was first drafted and introduced by Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton 41 years before, in 1878.
My leveled book series Famous Women in History: Leveled Books for Grades 2 - 4 is a great source to learn about other inspiring women from American history. This collection of leveled readers for second through fourth grade features stories about eight women and their contributions to history.
