Nona Willis-Aronowitz

An introduction to journaling for girls. Here they will find the tools to build their self confidence and self worth by helping to find their strengths and to build upon them. There are also fun things to do and is complete with QR codes to access short podcasts! Since I've never met a Rebel Girls book that I didn't love, I heartily endorse this one!
The illustrations continue to be delightful, imaginative, and colorful.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great show more for gifting to anyone, and even to a school or public library!
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Rebel Girls via NetGalley. Thank you! show less

I liked this book a lot! It's like a coffee table book of current American feminism. The book is beautifully made and the pictures make me crave a road trip of my own. While I understand other's criticisms of the book lacking focus and not learning enough of the women they interviewed, reading about all these women made me really happy and has prompted me to start delving into some feminist works that have been sitting unread on my shelf for awhile.

Do you consider yourself a feminist? What does feminism mean to you? What issues and topics are most important to you? What do you hope for the future? These are just a few of the questions Nona Willis Aronowitz and Emma Bee Bernstein posed to the 127 women profiled in this book, ranging from well-known feminists like Kathleen Hanna, Laura Kipnis, Erica Jong, Michele Wallace, and Starhawk, to women who don’t relate to feminism at all.

I likeded the concept of this book, which is why I read it, but as I read, I was a bit disappointed by the lack of depth in the interviews.
