Think danger and thrills are just for boys? Think again! This book tells the stories of 10 remarkable women who dared to attempt courageous feats. Read about Annie Edson Taylor, who went over Niagara Falls in a barrel, or Zazel, the woman who was shot out of a cannon. Ever heard of Sonora Webster Carver? They made the movie 'Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken' about her. She dove off a diving tower sixty feet in the air into a tank of water that wasn't that big. And she did it on the back of a horse. And she was blind. So if you're looking for a little excitement, read this book and find out what amazing things fearless women can really do.
