Tai illustrates 'Female Indigenous Heroes: 51 American Women from the 1800s to Today' for Callisto.

Written by Katrina Phillips, the book introduces young readers to 51 Native and Indigenous women from across North America, celebrating their achievements in art, science, medicine, sport, leadership, and beyond.

Through engaging biographies, the book highlights the lives of inspiring figures including Osage ballerina and activist Maria Tallchief, Blackfeet and Nez Perce actor Lily Gladstone, and Wilma Mankiller, the first female Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation.

Publishing at the end of July, the book shines a light on women whose talent, determination and lasting contributions continue to inspire new generations.
