´You Can Be Whatever You Want, Girl´

´All right, Girl, if you don´t believe in yourself, no one else will either´. 


From the Shira Halperin, the author of travel inspiration for little ones, Flying Kids comes an inspiring book aimed to empower girls, wherever or whoever they are. The times when the life and bodies of women are designed from an early age by men and men only are not yet behind us. Girls needs to learn how to be bold and reclaim their independence, from a very early age. This is what a book like You Can be Whatever You Want, Girl! is aimed to do.

Designed as an activity book but also as a diary, the book encourage girls to follow the example of Liri, the main protagonist. From setting up goals and organising your life accordingly, to acknowledging the need of a mentor and getting rid of the fear of making mistakes, this book is refreshing, essential, well-focused and...excuse me from being stereotypical...inspiring. 

Especially when at an age of tremendous physical and mental as well as social changes, one needs inspiration, role models. Some may be found in the family or at home, some can be imaginary characters of a book, like Liri. What really matters is to be able to build up that self-awareness without which one cannot build oneself a dignified life.

A bold girl will definitely make the society more open and courageous, including by welcoming women as full-part members of the society.

In addition to the well-smitten wording and many and diverse activities, the book has also the appeal of an attractive design and colourful graphic format.

If you are a mother, aunt, grand-mother, or a father, uncle or grand-father, do your girl a favor and get this book for the summer. Otherwise, if you are a girl looking to end up the summer holidays as a strong woman, save your pocket money for it. It´s worth it and promises a basic mentorship for moving forward in life, career and school. 

The book is also available on KindleUnlimited. 

Rating: 4.5 stars
