Girls are not chicks, 2009

Jacinta Bunnell, Julie Novak


We have enough of books that make girls think that they are not any good. We have enough of books that make girls think that they are too young, too old, too fat, too ugly, too tough, too loud, too independent. We like books that ask girls to take pride of themselves. Those of us who have been raised as or identify as girls have have often been given the idea that there is something wrong, weak and limited about being a girl or woman. This is not and never has been true. Girls are not chicks. Girl are thinkers, creators, fighters, healers and superheroes...Jacinta & Julie
