The subtitle says it all: 30 Fearless Girls Who Changed the World Before They Were 20. Each girl’s story is set into easy to read bites, just a few pages long with cute illustrations. It is an excellent cross section of historical and contemporary young women. Teen Trailblazers deals with humanitarian issues, social issues, self esteem, education, the arts, and more from each young woman who found their voice and calling at an early age.
A word of advice for parents: read through it too. You may not agree with every girl they picked to highlight fearlessness, but it could be a conversation starter with your teenage daughter. Listen, discuss, and learn from your amazing unique teenager about what issues are important to them. Inspire them to reach their own potential. 4 stars… (mais)
