Nice gift book for teenage girls
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I purchased copies of this book (signed by two of the featured girls locally!) to give my 14 year old nieces on their birthdays. I wrote each niece a letter saying I hoped the book would inspire them, etc., and sent them off, fingers crossed. They both LOVED them. In fact, one of my niece's friends asked where she could get a copy too! The profiles are so diverse I think every girl can find someone to relate to. A nice gift book that will be browsed often.
Hope for the future

Every Girl Tells a Story celebrates the diversity of America and shatters the stereotype of "teen-age girl". These 12-18 year old young women have lives that are active, spirits that are strong, and stories that inspire. The young women speak from their own voice and experience as they share uncommon events like cancer, birth defects, surgery, and organ transplant. They talk about the life changing events of going to a new school, being in foster care, living with disabled family members, divorce, and the death of a parent. Above it all, they dream, they help others, and they want to make the world a better place. And after reading their stories, I'm sure they will. Their stories are a voice of strength and compassion for any teen-age girl trying to find her way in the world, and an uplifting read for anyone. I highly recommend this book.
