A A is for Abigail: An Almanac of Amazing American Women by Lynne Cheney

New York Times bestselling team Lynne Cheney and Robin Preiss Glasser tell the remarkable (and often little known) stories of exceptional American women.

Lynne Cheney and Robin Preiss Glasser collaborated on America: A Patriotic Primer, which captured the imagination of American children and became a national bestseller. Now they turn their hands to A Is for Abigail: An Almanac of Amazing American Women and bring the great women of American history to life. Filled to the brim with words and pictures that celebrate the remarkable achievements of American women, this is a book to relish and to read again and again. Mothers, daughters, schoolchildren, and generations of families will take Abigail Adams's words to heart and "remember the ladies" once they read the stories of these astonishing, astounding, amazing American women.

We the People: The Story of Our Constitution, illustrated by Greg Harlin, is Lynne Cheney's most recent book, which was a New York Times bestseller. She's also the author of the New York Times bestsellers America: A Patriotic Primer, A Is for Abigail: An Almanac of Remarkable American Women, When Washington Crossed the Delaware: A Wintertime Tale for Young Patriots, A Time for Freedom: What Happened When in America, and Our 50 States: A Family Journey Across America, as well as a memoir called Blue Skies, No Fences. Mrs. Cheney is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and was previously the chair of the National Endowment for the Humanities. She and her husband, Vice President Richard B. Nixon, live in Washington, DC.
