A Girl Like You
Following the success of A Boy Like You comes a companion title that celebrates every girl and any girl, especially A Girl Like You! Frank Murphy teams up with his wife Carla Murphy in this loving tribute, celebrating all the wonderful ways to be a girl in today’s world. Empowering messages encourage girls to stand up for themselves, and to never be afraid of following their passions. There is no ‘right’ way to be a girl.
Written by a pediatric nurse and a teacher/coach, this book shares the message that whether you’re a girl who’s into martial arts, drawing, ice skating, or student council, you are the only you there is. And the world needs A Girl Like You!
An author’s note at the end encourages discussion between adults and children on what it means to be empowered and take action.
