I'm not sure why I wanted to read this, or what I was hoping to get from it. I didn't get much from it. I think the people who would benefit most are not the people who are inclined to read it. If you are drawn to reading about feminism already, then you've got it covered. Move along, nothing new to see.

Or maybe I just approach life very differently? I don't know. But everything in this little booklet was already the way I live my life, and the way I raise my kids.

This book was good and she gives a lot of good advice, but nothing I hadn’t heard before.

This is a must read for all parents, of both daughters and sons. Toss aside those books about when your child should be using a pincer grasp or identifying colors. Read this book about how to raise a child as a feminist, a strong and independent and kind person. It's geared towards parents of girls, but definitely applies to parents of boys as well. ...more
