The Girls Who Changed the World

Twelve-year-old Ming Qong is convinced that girls must have changed the world, even if they are rarely mentioned in history books. So when Ming gets the chance to go back in time, she imagines herself changing destinies from a glittering palace or an explorer's ship. Instead, she ends up in Australia in 1898, living a tough life as Flo Watson on a drought-stricken farm.

Ming Qong is convinced that girls have changed the world throughout history. So when Ming is thrust back in time, to Belgium during WW1, only to be rescued from a burning cellar by Marie, an experienced spy at only 12 years of age, she finally has her proof. Marie is involved with a female secret resistance group of individuals who risk their lives to outwit the German troops. But Ming now faces a tough choice: Will she send coded messages and risk her own life in this war on which the future depends? 

Ming Qong is convinced that girls have changed history throughout the world. She's faced danger and adventure when Herstory sent her to the past to witness girls' bravery in the incredible feats left out of 'histories'. Now Ming asks Herstory for another time-travelling quest–this time, one that is less confronting. Ming finds herself in relative luxury, heading to an unknown destination on a ship carrying royal Saxon sheep, travelling with the girls who care for them. What do female shepherds have to do with history? And is it even possible for sheep to be royal?
