The
Girl's Book of Success
By Catherine Dee
(editor)
Illustrated by Ali Douglass
"Winning wisdom,
tales of triumph, celebrity advice and more" fill this book
with inspiration for teen girls. You'll learn just what success
is, and it may not be what you have always believed. It can be as
big as being the richest woman in the known world like Oprah Winfrey,
who says she would do what she does, even if she didn't get paid
for it. Or as small as helping a disabled person to achieve a long
sought after goal.
This
latest in Catherine Dee's inspiring books for girls is loaded with
inspirational quotes from famous women; powerful stories of success
that will help girls to set goals and develop self-confidence. I
started to just pick through the book, but found myself reading
every word, and thinking how I could apply these life lessons to
myself....though I'm no teen.
These motivational stories
will help girls to analyze themselves, develop leadership skills,
handle the competition, and even how to fail and come up fighting
again. This book would make a wonderful gift for your favorite young
lady...you can inspire her to achieve her life dreams.
