Omschrijving

From ancient heroes like the rebel slave Spartacus to modern-day dissenters who defied the odds, Stand Up, Stand Out! is the ultimate guide to inspiring tales of human passion and courage.

Meet 25 of the most inspiring humans of all time! These rebels stood up for what they believed in, spoke out against injustice, and overcame impossible obstacles. From world leaders such as Gandhi and Nelson Mandela to unsung heroes like Irena Sendler (who smuggled 2,500 children out of the Warsaw Ghetto in World War II) and Juliane Koepcke (who survived an airplane crash at aged 17, followed by nine days in the Amazon rainforest), this book is filled with incredible stories of passion and endurance. It also offers encouraging suggestions on how to make your own stand when you see unfairness.

Meet these heroes!

Boudicca, the Celtic Queen who battled the invading Romans
Galileo Galilei, the star scientist whose theories upset the Catholic Church
Mary Seacole, the Jamaican nurse who fought against racism to treat soldiers during the Crimean War
Martin Luther King, Jr., winner of the Nobel Peace Prize who protested segregation and inequality
Muhammad Ali, the boxer who followed his conscience and refused to join the military
Cory Aquino, who stood against corruption in the Philippines . . . even after her husband's assassination
Malcolm Michaels Jr. / Marsha P. Johnson, the transgender icon and LGBTQ activist
And more!
