Publisher's Summary

Inspired by the number-one New York Times best seller She Persisted by Chelsea Clinton and Alexandra Boiger comes a chapter book series about women who stood up, spoke up and rose up against the odds - including Margaret Chase Smith!

In this chapter-book biography by award-winning author Ruby Shamir, readers learn about the amazing life of Margaret Chase Smith - and how she persisted

Margaret Chase Smith liked to help people, and she knew she could do that as a member of Congress. She became the first woman to serve in both the House and the Senate, where she supported the space program and more opportunities for women. Her hard work and success helped pave the way for generations of women after her to run for office.
