Girl Pages: Handbook of Best Resources for Growing Strong, Confident, Creative Girls

What a wonderful resource for young women. I found the book to be at the same time both practical and inspiring . It's full of contacts and connections, while breaking down stereotypes around what being a girl is all about. As a dad with all boys of my own, I often struggle when thinking about gifts for girls. Now I've got an answer.

How many young women do you meet that are full of questions relating to "how do I...?"or "where can I find...?" This is the book to which you can turn. It's a compendium of information organized by large subjects (e.g. sports, science, politics) to allow girls and/or their parents to access multiple sources (books, website addresses, camps)of support and information. I have given this book to many teenagers; their parents and schools have ordered copies after being introduced to it. (There's a website coming online in October or November that expands its utility.) Have this one on your shelf for the young women in your life!

i hink this was a great book loved it i gues

This book provides younger girls (under 17) and their parents with information on careers, activities and sports opportunities. It gives the reader information which would be nearly impossible to gather independently. It is a very very good resource document, with fascinating insights/ quotes from many outstanding women.
