Radford, VA – Ms. D. J. Mathews, author of Let’s Run Our Schools Together, has come out with a YA oriented book adults and teens alike can read. "Great American Women in Science and Environment" answers many questions the reader may have about these women – who inspired Elizabeth Blackwell to become the first U. S. woman doctor? How much fun did astronaut Sally Ride have up in the space shuttle? Why did Erin Brockovich help file a class action suit against Pacific Gas and Electric?

What encouragement did the fourteen women showcased in Great American Women in Science and Environment receive growing up? Was it smooth sailing for Madam C. J. Walker, inventor of haircare products for African American Women? Or for Lakota woman JoAnn Tall, who had to challenge the Tribal Council on her own to save the Black Hills from pollution? And how come Julia “Butterfly” Hill spent over two years living up in a California redwood? The answers to these and more can be found in a book meant to encourage young women and men alike to make a difference in their communities.

D. J. Mathews has written for many publications, including GEICO DIRECT magazine, the Bristol Herald Courier, The Lebanon News (VA), Virginia Wildlife, and at www.roanoke.com and blueridgecountry.com. She is also author of Let’s Run Our Schools Together. See more of her writing at www.greatamericanidea.com/blog/. (Only $14.95)
