Porath offers examples of real-life matriarchs who gave everything to protect their children and causes. The women covered range Amanirenas, born 60 BCE in the Kingdom of Kush (the Sudan) to Benazir Bhutto, born 1952 in Pakistan. The book is arranged by maturity level, as some of the stories cover abuse, rape, self-harm, and child loss.
