    We follow the story of Jeremiah South, a curious and imaginative ten-year-old boy growing up in an American town in Montgomery, Alabama during one of the most transformative years in history. As 1917 unfolds, Jeremiah's world shifts dramatically, both on a global scale and in his personal life. The backdrop of World War I looms large, as older boys from his town enlist to fight overseas, and families, including Jeremiah's, grapple with fear and uncertainty. Jeremiah watches as his brother joins the war effort, leaving behind his family and his home. The sense of duty and patriotism conflicts with the personal sacrifices many must make, and Jeremiah begins to understand the complexities of loyalty, courage, and loss. At school, Jeremiah learns about the world beyond Montgomery - from the suffragette movement advocating for women's rights to the technological advances that are transforming everyday life. The book captures how these larger events intersect with the innocence of childhood, as Jeremiah navigates friendships, family responsibilities, and the simple joys of being a child during a difficult time in history.

    On September 19, 1893, New Zealand made history by becoming the first self-governing nation to grant women the right to vote in parliamentary elections. This groundbreaking achievement was the result of years of dedicated work by suffrage campaigners, notably led by Kate Sheppard. Women voted for the first time on November 28, 1893, marking a significant milestone in women's suffrage. In this article, we've spotlighted a historic milestone in women's empowerment and their rights in New Zealand. The suffrage movement in New Zealand was inspired by similar groups in the British Empire and the United States, driven by the pursuit of social morality and women's safety. Challenges arose due to political duplicity, with some fearing that women might support alcohol prohibition, leading to opposition from those connected to the alcohol industry. The Legislative Council posed a significant hurdle, but suffragists' efforts eventually led to the bill's passage. While women gained the right to vote in 1893, it took until 1919 for them to be allowed to run for Parliament, and the first female Member of Parliament was not elected until 1933. Elizabeth Yates became the first woman mayor in the British Empire in 1894, and women gradually gained access to other political roles. New Zealand's progress in women's suffrage serves as an inspiration for women's empowerment globally, highlighting the importance of equal rights for all individuals, irrespective of gender.
