DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Using sparse text and large, bright photographs, the book debunks commonly-held gender-myths. Misconceptions are stated matter-of-factly (Boys don’t cook.), but when the page is turned, each myth is proven false with playful language (Are you sure?) and a contradictory photo (a male professional chef). This jacketless book is perfect for young readers as well as read-alouds and will generate discussions about gender-based assumptions around play and work.

Her fix-it business provides the perfect hideout as she deals with other people’s problems instead of focusing on her own shattered life. Grace Owens, single mother, is determined to stand on her own two feet and make a fresh start for herself and her nine-year-old daughter, Lucy. She’s promised her daughter they are here to stay. Grace is determined to keep that promise. Lucy has a goal of her own: she wants to master her math homework, and that’s a hard task with a mother who doesn’t understand division. The three meet under a leaky kitchen ceiling. What each has to give, the others need. They must learn when to take risks and when to trust each other. Together, can they find the tools that will allow them to fix what most needs to be rebuilt?

Jennifer knew that everyone deserves a voice! Then the Americans with Disabilities Act, a law that would make public spaces much more accessible to people with disabilities, was proposed to Congress. And to make sure it passed, Jennifer went to the steps of the Capitol building in Washington DC to convince them. And, without her wheelchair, she climbed. ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP!

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A rhyming extravaganza with just the right amount of cheeky irreverence, this book is sure to delight children with empowering perspectives on what it means to live without limits. What are the limiting thoughts that we have as a male or female about what we can and can't do, simply because of our gender? Some of the limitations are obvious and some are more subtle. The parameters are always shifting so it can be hard to have these kinds of sensitive discussions with children. How do we educate children without creating complexes or introducing so many rules around communication and language that we create distance between each other and opposition between our genders?

She has an important summer project to do for school, but it's okay because she has plenty of time to do it. At least, she thinks she does. The next thing she knows, she finds herself in the middle of a construction site. There she meets Jo, the construction company's owner. Through this new friendship, Caitlyn comes to realize that swinging a hammer and wielding a saw are much more fun than she thought...and can even help her with her homework. The Girls Can Do Anything book series was written to inspire young girls to explore how women can impact the everyday world around them. These stories aren't about competing with boys, or how much money they can make doing a certain job. Instead, these stories are about empowering young girls to think outside the box about their future and realize they possess within themselves the power, imagination, and potential to control their own destiny.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Celebrate the can-do attitude of fierce girls who know how to wield a hammer, fire up a saw, and build everything from a bookshelf to a playhouse. Featuring project photographs, this guide will inspire you to pick up your power tools and make something great. Carpenter Katie Hughes frequently found that she was the only woman on construction worksites. To change that, she began teaching classes to girls ages 8-14, showing them how to drill, saw, and weld. Her classes quickly became sold out summer camps and she founded her own non-profit, Girls Build. Girls Who Build features candid and arresting photographs of forty-five girls showing off their power tools and can-do attitudes. Accompanying each girl is a profile interview where she speaks to her inspirations and favorite builds, plus tips for others starting out. Also included are building skills, techniques, and safety tips to teach girls -- and older beginners -- how to handle hammers, drills, and saws plus thirteen do-it-herself building projects (from the featured girls themselves) such as picture frames, nightstands, playhouses, and more.
