Must Have Children’s Books About Girl Leaders

Must Have Children’s Books About Girl Leaders

, , , , , ,

Being a leader could matter to 1 person or 1 million people. But to act on injustice or inequality, I recognize that girl leaders females have different obstacles.  As Clare Boothe Luce perfectly says, “Because I am a woman, I must make unusual efforts to succeed. If I fail, no one will say, “she doesn’t have what it takes.” They will say, “Women don’t have what it takes.”

Below is a list of books (for ages 0-17) about strong female leaders who will challenge, inspire, and help girls and womxn think about taking action in their own community.  Changing the world for women starts with you.

A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go, but ought to be. -Rosalynn Carter #fearlessfemales #amreading Share on X

  Change Makers Come in All Shapes and Sizes

There are hundreds of ways for children to become change makers and be leaders in their communities.

Every day, children are making choices to stand up for themselves as well as others, and this can affect drastic change in their community. This story is about two changemakers and the intersectionality of education and gun violence within the African-American community.

I know full well that one girl is powerful, but a movement of girls is unstoppable. Read more about two everyday girl leaders, Havana Chapman-Edwards and Taylor Richardson that will inspire the children in your life HERE.
