Girls Can! Make It Happen

Our girls deserve to know deep inside that they can do whatever they choose. That's the message of this brightly illustrated voice cheering girls on to be their best selves. Using the examples of Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Sandra Day O'Connor and Sally Ride, girls see how other girls made it to the top. Maybe they knew right away that they had a talent like Jackie who could run so fast. Maybe they grew up learning and riding horses and chasing rainbows and took things step by step as though "life for her had its own plan." That's how Sandra Day O'Connor describes her journey. Astronaut Sally Ride believed she could go to the stars even though no other American woman had ever done it before. An inspirational, encouraging, world-stretching shout out to girls to be sure they know they are already on their way and nobody can stop them! 40 pages Ages 4-8
