Follow Sarah Breedlove's journey from the first child in her family born free to a woman with a thriving hair care business, posed to become America's first self-made millionaire.

"An inspiring story for any young girl waiting to make her mark on society." ― Kirkus Reviews

"Rooted in fact, this lightly fictionalized account gives readers an opportunity to connect with Breedlove as a storied individual whose entrepreneurial prowess and support of black women continues to impact people today." ― Publishers Weekly

"In this detailed, remarkable book filled with both inspiration and sadness, young readers will see the motivation behind Sarah's outstanding achievement...The knowledge that her life wasn't easy makes Sarah's success that much sweeter for readers to enjoy." ― Common Sense Media

"Activities at the back of the book make [this] great to spark inspiration in girls and boys." ― Metro Parent
