What is Florence Nightingale about?

Florence Nightingale, born in 1820, defied societal expectations to pursue her passion for nursing. During the Crimean War, she transformed the filthy, disease-ridden military hospitals, significantly reducing death rates. Known as 'The Lady with the Lamp' for her nightly rounds, Florence's dedication laid the foundation for modern nursing. This book explores her inspiring journey and includes practical first aid tips for young readers.
