Away with Words: The Daring Story Of Isabella Bird<\/a>
\nby Lori Mortensen (Author) and Kristy Caldwell (Illustrator)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> This picture book biography about the first female member of the Royal Geographical Society takes readers around the world with a daring 19th century female explorer and author. Exploring was easier said than done in Victorian England. But Isabella persisted, and with each journey, she breathed in new ways to see and describe everything around her. Question by question, word by word, Isabella bloomed. First, out in the English countryside. Then, off to America and Canada, and eventually around the world to Africa, Asia, Australia, and more.<\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong> Out in the wild, Isabella forgot about her aches and pains. She breathed in new ways to see and describe everything around her.<\/p>\n

Question by question, word by word, Isabella bloomed.<\/p>\n
