... [This book] tells a simple story about how a tenacious Elizabeth Blackwell challenged the medical establishment to become the first woman doctor in America. In this picture book, Stone steers clear of feminist agendas and sticks to history, highlighting the determination Blackwell needed to overcome both obstacles and discouragement. Male students may have intended her acceptance to New York’s Geneva Medical School—after 28 rejections elsewhere—as a joke, but the joke was on them.
