Anmeldelser
«A fascinating read and Robert's illustrations are a real visual treat.»
Irish Independent
«David Roberts’ Suffragette for ages eight-plus, should be in every primary school. With vigour, humour, elegance and conviction, his clear prose and energetic pictures tell the tale of how women won the vote a hundred years ago. Covering aristocrats and the middle and working classes, the book depicts the fight in a series of full-page stories, pictures, songs and cruel errors of judgement.»
Amanda Craig, New Statesman
«Provides a real opportunity for children to elicit empathy, be persuasive and even encourage activism in their own reading [...] incredibly well researched»
CLPE
«Among more than a score of new children’s books about the fight for votes for women, many of them admirable, this labour of love stands out as the most beautiful and illuminating. Pictures and text are exceptionally elegant, clear and entertaining.»
The Sunday Times Culture
«A lavish colour hardback replete with his distinctive, perceptive art, he offers fascinating insights into the complex history of the movement, looking beyond the stereotypes to include working-class women and diverse stories from around the world.»
Observer
«Gorgeously illustrated history of the women’s movement by children’s book genius David Roberts, out this week. Love.»
The Sunday Times Style
«I've seen nothing quite like this large, lavish non-fiction history of the Suffragettes. Told through the meticulously researched pictures and words of David Roberts, this is the story of their bravery and ingenuity, covering the whole range of suffragette experience, from working-class to aristocrat»
The Bookseller
«A powerful resource»
Askews and Holts
«This treasure of a book is a fantastic introduction for younger readers and has plenty of stories to keep modern feminists engaged»
Guardian
«Inspiring, punchily written and gorgeous to look at.»
The Times
«What I love most about Suffragette is that it covers all classes, genders (hey, men can be suffragists too!) and experiences, as well as featuring suffragette superstars like Emmeline Pankhurt and Emily Wilding Davison.»
