My daughters felt inspired reading this bookBy momoftwoAfter getting the book today; both my young daughters kept begging me to read additional pages and both separately asked if they could be the ones to keep it in their room to read before falling asleep. I thought it would be a good coffee table book in our house; but had no idea it would resonate with them quite that much. I purchased it after my youngest experienced some bullying at school after getting a pixie (very short) haircut that she was very proud about. I loved that the intro to the book happened to talk about girls and short hair cuts. After going through many pages of the book; my daughter asked if I could take photos of her being strong and she could write about how she is strong. So glad to have come across this book!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Inspiring!!!By JanI highly recommend this wonderful book for any parents raising a young daughter. My 8-year-old has been inspired by the photos and quotes from the young ladies engaged in a wide range of activities--physical and cerebral. Strong is truly the new pretty!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Excellent gift or teachers; daughters; mothers; men who know women...By ErinInspiring in every way.
