Where are the women? That’s a question a little girl named Maya had. She is the main character in the book "Maya’s Big Question." In the story, Maya goes on a field trip to Washington, D.C. and notices that just about all of the monuments and statues pay tribute to men. 

“Maya’s Big Question,” is the fifth book by New York Times bestselling Bay Area author Meena Harris.The main character is named after her mother and policy advocate Maya Harris. Meena’s aunt is former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris.  KALW’s Jenee Darden spoke with Meena Harris on “The Sights + Show.” Here’s an excerpt from that conversation.
