In this book, Eve Ensler, the acclaimed author of 'The Vagina Monologues', presents a series of fictional monologues and stories inspired by girls around the world. Moving through a range of topics and emotions, these voices are fierce, alive, tender, complicated, imaginative, and smart. Girls today often find themselves in a constant struggle between staying true to themselves and giving in to society's expectations to please others. They are taught not to be too intense, passionate, intelligent, caring, or open, and are encouraged to suppress their instincts, outrage, desires, and dreams, to be polite, and to obey the rules. This book is a celebration of the authentic voice that resides in every girl and an inspiring call to action for young women around the world to raise their voices, pursue their dreams, and become the women they were always meant to be.
