ReadÂing this book, I jumped up and down with exciteÂment. I kept turnÂing the pages until I had read every one of the true stoÂries. My brain revved into high speed as I learned about girls and women, probÂlem solvÂing and innoÂvatÂing, with resultÂing proÂgrams like Teach for AmerÂiÂca, ChildÂline India, RanÂdomKid, and TechÂnoÂvaÂtion ChalÂlenge. What could I do? How could I make a difference?
CatherÂine Thimmesh has a talÂent (Girls Think of EveryÂthing) for selectÂing the charisÂmatÂic women and proÂgrams to feaÂture, researchÂing to disÂtill inforÂmaÂtion the readÂer wants to know, and telling true stoÂries conÂciseÂly. MelisÂsa Sweet illusÂtrates porÂtraits and conÂcepts with her well-known brilÂliance, adding to our underÂstandÂing. TogethÂer, the book becomes a whole that moves the readÂer to action.


What a book! Treat yourÂself to these inspirÂing stoÂries of smarts, bravÂery, perÂsisÂtence, and derring-do.
