Hear Her Voice! Twelve Jewish Women Who Changed The World is an extraordinary collection of biographies showcasing both biblical Jewish leaders and modern, well-known Jewish personalities.
Each of the women described in this book is unique in the way she was influenced by her family, by her environment, and by the way she chose to react to those influences.
Each of these women lived a life rich in Jewish values, while remaining free to pursue her cherished dreams.

At the end of each biography there is a section with thought-provoking questions, project ideas, and additional resources, including books and websites, for further learning and research about these influential Jewish role models.
