  1. Tannu Rani

    A quick and easy read. My son wasn’t as interested as I’d hoped, but he did learn something about newborn care.

  2. Manik Lakhwani

    We loved learning about Virginia Apgar and her contributions to medicine. This book is a great way to introduce kids to STEM fields.

  3. Shubhkirti Singh

    It’s a good book, but nothing special. The story is a bit bland and could have been more engaging for young readers.

  4. Dhruv Singh

    My niece loved learning about Virginia Apgar! The illustrations are engaging, and the story is inspiring. A great addition to the ‘She Persisted’ series.

  5. Vaibhav Kumar Arya

    A good introduction to a fascinating woman. My daughter enjoyed it, but I felt it glossed over some of the challenges she faced. Overall, a worthwhile read.

  6. Ishan Bose

    A decent book, but not the best in the ‘She Persisted’ series. It felt a little rushed, and I didn’t connect with the story as much as I had hoped.

  7. Syed Reyhan Syed Aqueel Ahmed

    While informative, it lacked the emotional depth I expected. It’s a good starting point, but I would supplement with other resources for a more complete picture.

  8. Saurabh Singh

    My kids enjoyed learning about Virginia Apgar. I liked that the book highlighted the Apgar score and it significance.

  9. Vishal Sinha

    Inspiring! My daughter was so impressed by Virginia Apgar’s dedication and hard work. A must-read for young girls.

  10. Kuldeep Singh

    This book is a great introduction to a remarkable woman. It’s easy to understand and kept my child engaged.

  11. Ujjval Verma

    A wonderful story of perseverance and innovation! My child loved learning about how Virginia Apgar helped babies.

  12. Preethi Vardhan Yadav Golla

    It’s okay. A bit simplistic, even for young readers. The Apgar score is explained well, but the book could have gone into more depth about her life.

  13. Khanak Bajpai

    Such an inspirational story! My daughter now wants to be a doctor. This book is perfect for encouraging young girls to pursue their dreams.

  14. Priya

    This book is fantastic! It’s well-written, engaging, and tells the story of an amazing woman who made a real difference in the world.

  15. Prerna Gupta

    The illustrations are beautiful, and the story is well-written. However, I wish there was more information about the challenges she overcame as a woman in medicine.
