In this book you'll meet ten fascinating Canadian women. Barbara Frum, today one of the most successful journalists in Canada, began her career when as a young mother she sold a piece to CBC Radio on how to amuse your kids. Margaret Atwood's highly acclaimed writing career started with poems published in literary magazines when she was an undergraduate. Runner Abby Hoffman first appeared in the sports pages when she was an all-star defenceman on a boys' hockey team.
