“Karen M. Greenwald’s book, A Vote For Susanna is a fantastic and important book. And so inspiring and educational! And Sian’s illustrations are beautifully done. It certainly deserves all the accolades it has been receiving."
Jade Piros de Carvalho
Mayor of Hutchinson, KS
"Karen M. Greenwald's book is a delightful celebration of Kansas' shining legacy as the first state with a woman Mayor. This recognition will highlight Mayor Salter's unique story and inspire a new generation of Kansans to aim high in their leadership goals" ; "As a woman mayor, sharing the book with my daughter was meaningful because she didn't understand that women weren't always able to serve in public office. It's important for children to learn the history of women who blazed the trail for others.”
Treva Hodges, PhD.
1st Woman Mayor of Charlestown, IN
"One of my new favorite books!" ; "Susanna’s story is a wonderful tale of success in the face of adversity. Karen Greenwald’s translation of Susanna’s win into a children’s book helps us remind our young girls and boys that everyone can stand up to bullies. It’s inspiring to see.”
Farrah N. Khan
1st Woman Mayor of Irvine, CA
"A Vote for Susanna is the story of so many of us that have broken barriers to be elected Mayors. As the first woman of color and Muslim Mayor for our city and region, being the first is just the beginning, it’s keeping the door open so others can have a seat at the table too."
Anne McEnerny-Ogle

"A Vote for Susanna, The First woman Mayor is an appealing true-life story that inspires all of us to aim higher while demonstrating the actions of how to reach those heights."
