"Murphy will motivate readers to challenge stereotypes." -Library Journal

Don't you hate it when someone takes credit for another person's idea? It happens a lot, and the people who lose out are often women.This book tells the stories of women whose inventions, discoveries, and creations were credited to men-women like Zelda Fitzgerald, the novelist, painter, and playwright who was more than F. Scott's wife, and Margaret Knight, who invented the flat-bottomed paper bag but saw the patent go to a man who stole off to the Patent Office with her idea.By telling the stories of the brilliant women artists, inventors, scientists, architects, and mathematicians who were denied their due, Oh No He Didn't! will help all women tackle obstacles and create a kinship of understanding that will inspire and transcend generations.
