Molly, by Golly!: The Legend of Molly Williams, America's First Female Firefighter

Representation is so important, and this book features a Black woman who becomes a firefighter against the odds. She represents what is possible. It’s a darling book for kids, both boys and girls.

It was an awesome story. It held the attention of 20 kindergarteners when I read this to my great nephew's class. It was great for African American History Month.

Story and illustrations were captivating and vibrant

I never heard of this woman before I was just looking around for African American books for my daughter and this book popped up. I love this story of how an African American woman back in those days can become a firefighter or at least considered one. This story should be told in elementary schools so females can see they can grow up to be just as good as a male firefighter.

This book is wonderful. So pleased to have this in classroom library for students to learn of this brave woman.
