DESCRIPTION

Skip right into this joyful, diverse, alphabetic picture book celebrating girls around the world.

A, my name is ALBA and my sister's name is AYELÉN. We come from ARGENTINA and we are ADVENTUROUS.

Girls from 26 different countries - Argentina to Zambia - are beautifully and thoughtfully represented in this A-to-Z tribute of global girlhood. Children will enjoy reading about each girl's name, empowering character trait, and country, while learning how we are all connected.

Globally-minded kids can also find the countries on a map at the back of the book and dream of places they'd like to visit.

This kind-hearted and hopeful book will let girls feel inspired and loved.
