TRUTH BOMB: Being a girl freakin’ rocks! But that doesn’t mean it’s always easy.
 
Sometimes you need inspiration, support, and advice to help you find your voice and believe in yourself.  Girlish is a fun, feisty, information-packed handbook—part discovery course, part interactive journal—filled with quotes, tips, truth bombs, and profiles of amazing women from all walks of life, from Ruth Bader Ginsberg and Amy Poehler to Malala Yousafzai and Simone Biles.
 
Embracing all the beauty, chaos, hope, and frustration of being a girl in the twenty‑first century, Girlish explores life topics that include gender equality, body positivity, self-esteem, relationships, friendship, and even dealing with the mixed bag of the internet and social media.
Thought-provoking questions dare you to define your values, set goals, dream BIG, and celebrate everything that makes you you.
 
Ready to create, inspire, invent, strive, lead, love—and have some laughs along the way?
