Back in 1881, when Evelyn Cheesman was born, English girls were
expected to be clean and dressed in frilly dresses. But Evelyn
crawled in dirt and collected glow worms in jars. When girls grew
up they were expected to marry and look after children. But Evelyn
took charge of the London Zoo insect house, filling it with
crawling and fluttering specimens and breathing life back into the
dusty exhibits. In the early 1920s, women were expected to stay
home, but Evelyn embarked on eight solo expeditions to distant
islands. She collected over 70,000 insect specimens, discovered new
species, had tangles with sticky spider webs, and tumbled from a
cliff. Inspire children to believe in their dreams and blaze their
own trail with the story of Evelyn's amazing life!
