Give your precious little girl the vital gift of self-confidence right at the start of her valuable life. This enjoyable book will show your loved one that she is a strong, important person, and that she can be proud to be a girl. "It's POWERFUL to be a GIRL!" teaches our youngsters (and adults) that girls are extraordinary beings - exactly the way they are. SUMMARY: The main characters are Kelly Confident and her younger sister Kayla. When Kayla asks Kelly if she is glad to be a girl, Kelly answers the question with an emphatic "yes." Kelly shows her sister why through a fun tour of some of the world's extraordinary women, the careers they hold, and the lives they choose - whether it be that of a doctor, teacher, athlete, or full-time mother. AGES 4 & UP CONGRESSWOMAN CAROLYN B. MALONEY, 14TH DISTRICT NEW YORK "I applaud Wendy Roy for her efforts to empower young girls through her latest publication, "It's POWERFUL to be a GIRL!" This children's book emphasizes the vital, positive message that women have remarkable options and can do extraordinary things. I wish my daughters had a book like this when they were growing up." JUDY NORSIGIAN, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, OUR BODIES OURSELVES "How wonderful to have a book that celebrates girls and women as key contributors to all aspects of improving the health and well-being of our communities. Wendy Roy encourages girls to think of their bodies and minds as creative forces for social change - a welcome antidote to the pervasive media messages that portray women primarily as sex objects." MARY F. CARSON, MD, HARVARD VANGUARD MEDICAL ASSOCIATES "Kelly Confident renewed my pride in being a girl! She achieves her goal of empowering us by showing us real girls and makes the possibilities for her readers seem endless!" ATTORNEY REBECCA PONTIKES, PONTIKES LAW, LLC "Media images of women and girls equate their worth with the ability to be 'sexy' and reduce them to their respective body parts... Books like this one are a welcome antidote to this mainstream definition and will empower women and girls to stand up for equality." CATHERINE STOVER, CHILD ART THERAPIST "It's POWERFUL to be a GIRL!" celebrates the uniqueness, power, and inner and outer beauty of being a woman. In today's society women are constantly compared to other women based on appearance. However, this book eschews this comparison and promotes the importance of female relationships to enhance emotional well-being. This is a delightful and influential book that all growing girls should have on their bookshelves and one that I will keep on mine." BARBARA J. KIERNAN, M.S. Ed., AUTHOR OF "BEHIND THE SCHOOL WALL" "In a society that judges and values women for their physical appearance, it is very empowering to have Kelly Confident point out all the other reasons why girls are powerful. This book sends a message that true beauty comes from within, and while it's important to take care of our bodies in order to look and feel our best, it is even more important to develop the character and skills to make this a better world. I look forward to seeing this book in our schools, libraries and book stores. It is VERY empowering and will encourage girls not to rely solely on their looks." ALLISON REILLY-GUERETTE, MOTHER "I can't wait to read this book to my daughter. I want her to embody Kelly Confident's message that she is part of a powerful, caring group of women, that her possibilities are limitless, and that whatever choices she makes she will be loved and appreciated."
