Their stories and others are told in Amazons!

Compellingly related by acclaimed storyteller Sally Pomme Clayton, these tales demonstrate that being an Amazon isn't so much about physical strength as it is about courage, skill, imagination, and kindness. Sophie Herxheimer's vibrant artwork is the perfect match for these soul-stirring stories, and her illustrations reflect the variegated cultures represented in these here.
