A Mighty Girl's Pick of the Day: "The Girls Who Stepped Out of Line: Untold Stories of the Women Who Changed the Course of World War II" by Major General Mari K. Eder. When Hitler's N***s threatened the world, every person was needed to help the war effort -- and countless women stepped up to support the fight! This fascinating book tells the story of fifteen little-known heroes of the Greatest Generation: resistance fighters, pioneering pilots, rescuers, and spies. Each of them defied expectation in service of their country and people in need, not because they would be acclaimed for it but because it was the right thing to do. From Ola Mildred Rexroat, the only Native American pilot in the WASP, to sisters and opera buffs Ida and Louise Cook who smuggled Jews out of Germany while wearing jewelry and furs, to Hilda Eisen who was captured by the N***s and escaped -- twice -- these are stories to inspire future generations with the courage of women who step out of line. Highly recommended for adult readers.
