Description

A bold picture book biography about Mary Katherine Goddard, the only woman whose name is printed on the Declaration of Independence, by award-winning author Karen Blumenthal and Jen McCartney, and illustrated by Elizabeth Baddeley. Who was Mary Katharine Goddard? Born in 1738, she was homeschooled by her mother in reading and math. She took over her brother's printing shop a few years later and became an expert in printing newspapers, essays, and posters. When the American Revolution started, she published important news that helped the fight against the British - even if it meant that if she was caught, she'd be punished for treason. In 1776, Mary was asked to print the Declaration of Independence - she is the only woman whose name is on the Declaration. That was Mary. Follow Mary's revolutionary journey in this captivating picture book biography perfect for fans of I DISSENT and COUNTING ON KATHERINE.

Author Biography:

Karen Blumenthal (1959-2020) was a financial journalist and editor whose career included five years with The Dallas Morning News and twenty-five with The Wall Street Journal--where her work helped earn the paper a Pulitzer Prize for its breaking news coverage of the September 11, 2001 attacks--before becoming an award-winning children's non-fiction book writer. Jen McCartney is a television writer and screenwriter. She has worked on Hulu's Solar Opposites, Netflix's The Big Show Show, and others. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband and dog, Peach. She is honored to have finally gotten to write something with her mom. Elizabeth Baddeley is no stranger to a print shop. Her arts education included screenprint, intaglio, and just like Mary, letterpress. Elizabeth lives in Roeland Park, Kansas with her husband and son where she loves to draw in her sketchbook, garden, and sew.
