As a child, Laura Ingalls Wilder traveled across the prairie in
a covered wagon. Her daughter, Rose, thought those stories might
make a good book, and the two created the beloved Little House
series.
Sara Breedlove, the daughter of former slaves, wanted everything
to be different for her own daughter, A'Lelia. Together they built
a million-dollar beauty empire for women of color. Marie Curie
became the first person in history to win two Nobel prizes in
science. Inspired by her mother, Irene too became a scientist and
Nobel prize winner.
"Borrowed Names" is the story of these extraordinary mothers and
daughters.
