Comments:
This
was a great book and interesting read! It was inspiring to
read the stories of so many successful women. It proved that
women can do jobs that were thought to be men's jobs. I could
relate to it. I think all girls with dreams should read this
book.

The
Smart Girls' Guide is filled with excellent advice that should
reassure girls who are on track and help redirect girls who
are losing their way to a successful future. The writing style
and stories are interesting and easy to follow.

It
was well written and it makes you think about life questions.
Lindsay Marie Johnson, age 11
The
pleasure was in the time she and I spent talking about "life
questions" when reading and discussing the book with
my granddaughter.
Elaine M. Kraut -CEO and grandmother
My
daughters and I both read the book and found that it was timely
in a number of ways. My girls have had a great anxiety about
moving. We have used the book most specifically to help the
girls cope with this new change. I believe the strategies
that you have given are tangible and accessible.
