She Did It First is a coloring book that brings to life the inspiring stories of Black women who were the “firsts” in their fields. With each page, young artists are invited to color in portraits of these trailblazers as little girls—imagining the dreams, hopes, and courage that carried them to greatness.
This book isn’t about facts or timelines; it’s about showing young readers that big achievements often start with small, determined steps. From the arts to the sciences, these women opened doors for others to follow, and their stories remind us all of the power in every dream.
