"Finally, a children's book about biblical girls! The Sisters Z presents a biblical tale about five orphaned sisters who are smart and independent, and who successfully challenge the Israelite elder's assumptions about the rights of girls and boys, men and women . . . a lesson that is important for children and parents alike." — Ambassador Meryl Frank (ret.), President/CEO Make Global

"The Sisters Z is a delightful retelling of a little-known Biblical story.  When Moses decides that the orphaned daughters of Zelophehad should receive their “own land and their own home” upon entering the land of Canaan, he affirms both the rights of family and the empowerment of women.

"The story is sweet and should be easily understood when read to children by their parents or a teacher. It’s also exciting and funny. When the two youngest girls decide to 'hike up Mt. Nebo' against the instruction of their oldest sister, one sister says 'Mt. Nebo isn’t far away. It is just far up.'

"The gentle illustrations enhance the story by clarifying the setting and the characters.  This is especially important as there are 5 sisters with unfamiliar names." — Sylvia Rouss, author of In My Preschool, There is a Time for Everything
