Based on true events, Doing Her Bit traces the history of the Women’s Land Army during World War I. Real-life Farmerette Helen Stevens trains to farm the land, negotiates a position for herself and other women, and does her bit for the war effort. This unique book celebrates the true grit of American men and women.
“Crisp dialogue and small dramas propel this story of a young woman’s summer of service in wartime and women’s emerging power on the homefront.” – Kirkus Reviews
Written by Erin Hagar, author of middle-grade biography, JULIA CHILD: AN EXTRAORDINARY LIFE IN WORDS AND PICTURES, and illustrated by Jen Hill.
