Meet fifteen heroines who defy convention, challenge expectations ... and forge their own happy endings! This beautifully illustrated collection draws together folk tales from around the world, in which smart and spirited heroines refuse to be characters in someone else's story. Read all about brave Elisa, who rescues her brothers from a terrible curse; free-spirited Leelinau, who breaks with tradition and chooses her own future; and clever Princess Pyeonggang, who saves a whole country with her wits!--Back cover
