Wild Girls was an enjoyable book overall. I learned new information about the lives of women in history. I didn’t know these women had such a personal connection to nature. I REALLY enjoyed learning about the Fort Shaw female basketball team. I struggled with the writing style. The frequency and method of how Miles connected the different stories was difficult for me to follow.

I had a great time reading this book. I liked how it blended the ecological information about the milkweed plant with beautiful artwork. The book is structured into short chapters and include illustrations that support the text. I almost felt like a kid again reading this book. It made me think more about plants and the ecosystems that they grow in.
