Shield Maiden Reviews

[My daughter] loved the fact that this was a story about a strong female character - someone who learnt to fight as well as her brother and went into battle to protect her country but at the same time you could see this other side of her, the gentler side. I think reading books with characters like this is powerful for young girls - they can see women who are strong but can still be kind and caring. * ofamily learning together blog *
