Description
By: Sue Macy | Series: Photobiographies
National Geographic's award-winning photobiography of Annie Oakley is the stirring story of an enduring American heroine that has won widespread acclaim and was named a School Library Journal Best Book of the Year.
Her amazing life comes sharply into focus in a compelling narrative, period photography, and her own words. Two historical maps and a chronology ground the legend in time and place.

Annie's hardships are examined, too, as is her inspirational status as a role model for women.
Awards include:
• American Library Association Notable Book
• Cooperative Children's Book Center Choice
• NCSS/CBC Notable Social Studies Trade Book for Children
• Placement on the Texas Bluebonnet Award Master List
