Girls Who Rocked the World: Heroines from Joan of Arc to Mother Teresa

â€œYoung women looking for inspiration will surely find itâ€ (Booklist) in these profiles of forty-six movers and shakers who made their mark before they turned twenty.

This fun and inspiring collection of influential stories provides forty-six illustrated examples of strong, independent female role models, all of whom first impacted the world as teenagers or younger. Originally published in two volumes over a decade ago, this fully updated and expanded edition of Girls Who Rocked the World spans a variety of achievements, interests, and backgrounds, from Harriet Tubman and Coco Chanel to S.E. Hinton and Maya Linâ€”each with her own incredible story of how she created life-changing opportunities for herself and the world. Personal aspirations from todayâ€™s young women are interspersed throughout the book, which also includes profiles of teenagers who are rocking the world right nowâ€”girls like Winter Vinecki, the creator of the nonprofit organization Team Winter, and Jazmin Whitley, the youngest designer to show at L.A. Fashion Week.
Itâ€™s never too soon to start making a difference, and these exhilarating examples of girl power in action make for ideal motivation.
