Or to bring up another Tolkien fem...Luthien..another "rabble rouser" who refused to stay put with Daddy when the man she loved needed rescuin'....which she did, and did so in style.
My aunt gave me a wonderful paper doll book when I was nine. It was filled with paper dolls of famous women in history...women who did things on their own and changed our world in the process. Like Amelia Earhardt, Sappho, Queen Boddica(sp?), Queens Elizabeth and Victoria, Lady Murasaki (the first novelist ever in the history of man was a woman), Golda Mier (sp?) and Marie Curie to name a few. I'd love someone to put together a paper doll book of women in books and plays who are good role models too. That would be keen. (I'll get to work on it I think.)
