Because I am a Girl Book: It’s on the way!

Screen shot 2010-02-17 at 9.00.42 AM I just ordered my Because I am a Girl Book through Amazon and can’t wait ’til it gets here!

A bunch of authors have gotten together and written a collection of stories about the experience of girls around the world, including places like Brazil, Togo, Sierra Leone, Cambodia, Uganda, Ghana and the Dominican Republic. The stories are apparently hopeful, but also truthful about the real situations girls face including prejudice, abuse and neglect.

Boyd Tonkin at the Indepentent calls it edgy and bold, and says, “It’s not your standard do-good, feel-good collection at all.”

Not only will I learn more about these issues that I’m interested in, but the money I spent on the book also goes directly to Because I am a Girl activities. Move it, Canada Post!

jeez lots of of the feedback people enter crack me up, time after time i wonder if they in reality read the information and content before leaving a comment or whether they simply look at the post title and write the very first thing that pops into their heads. nonetheless, it is really relaxing to look over intelligent commentary once in a while compared to the identical, outdated post vomit that i oftentimes discover on the net
