Parker pdf epub free download zip rar/online Review “[Strong is the New Pretty is] a book of images of young girls being athletic, being active, being strong, being proud talking about their hobbies, talking about what they aspire to be in their lives. And it just [makes] me think...I hope that we're able to give that over to the younger generation.†â€"Kate Winslet, Los Angeles Times “I’m so obsessed with Strong Is the New Pretty. The book has a little bit of everything. It’s an amazing thing [that] my daughter and I have bonded over so hard, and she’s looking at these girls and looking at what the messaging is. It’s so well done. She wants to know the ages. I read the captions to her. She sleeps with it at night. And she is looking at girls who are talking about what they feel they can do in life. It’s so well curated too. It has this beautiful look and feel to it. It’s really the first thing in a while to kind of knock me off my feet.†â€"Drew Barrymore, USMagazine.com “A great book… I gave [it] to my daughters and watched as they pored over it.†â€"Nicole Kidman, Vogue.com ​“Femtastic… A powerful book.​â€Â â€"FamilyCircle Magazine ​“Strong Is The New Pretty is the definition of girl power.​â€Â â€"Buzzfeed “A lovely exploration filled with exquisite images of girls and quotes about what makes them strong, beautiful, and confident … stunning.†â€"School Library Journal “Positively moving and totally glorious.†â€"Booklist “This is an amazing celebration of the strength, confidence, and energy of girls and young women who are just beginning to understand their power in the world. Imagine how much more we can all accomplish when girls honor what their bodies can do and focus on their dreams rather than fixate on what they look like and obsess about their shape.†â€"Ann Shoket, former editor in chief of Seventeen magazine and author of The Big Life “Within the pages of Strong Is the New Pretty, we see girls as they naturally are and what they want and demand the world to see. They are inspiring, wise, and grounded in the certainty that they will take the world by storm.†â€"Rosalind Wiseman, author of Queen Bees & Wannabes and the Owning Up curriculum Read more About the Author Kate T.

Strong Is the New Pretty: A Celebration of Girls Being Themselves by Kate T. Parker
Strong Is the New Pretty: A Celebration of Girls Being Themselves by Kate T. Parker is After getting the book today, both my young daughters kept begging me to read additional pages and both separately asked if they could be the ones to keep it in their room to read before falling asleep. I thought it would be a good coffee table book in our house, but had no idea it would resonate with them quite that much. I purchased it after my youngest experienced some bullying at school after getting a pixie (very short) haircut that she was very proud about. I loved that the intro to the book happened to talk about girls and short hair cuts. After going through many pages of the book, my daughter asked if I could take photos of her being strong and she could write about how she is strong. So glad to have come across this book!
Strong Is the New Pretty: A Celebration of Girls Being Themselves by Kate T. Parker is I sent this book to my six-year-old "No princesses!" and "No pink!" granddaughter Sophie because she is athletic: she swims, climbs, hikes, rides a bike, and competes with her older brother. She is who she is and is determined and fierce and joyful with whatever she attempts to do. Recently she's been shinnying up street signs in San Francisco, where her family lives. She made her own Halloween costume this year: the heroine from How to Train Your Dragon.The young girls inside this book talk about their lives in a paragraph accompanying each photograph. The book is divided into nine sections: Confident Is Strong, Wild Is Strong, Resilient Is Strong, and so on.I also bought the book as a Halloween treat for the three little girls who live in the house behind me, kindergarten through sixth grade. Their dad built a balance beam for them where they practice walkovers and other amazing gymnastics. Each goes to her own after school program: ballet, water polo, and gymnastics. Their dad told me that they all sat pouring over the pictures in the book, heads together, discussing what they saw. Perfection.
Strong Is the New Pretty: A Celebration of Girls Being Themselves by Kate T. Parker is This special book has sparked many interesting conversations in my family--not only among the kids, but with my husband and I, too. We have given it as gifts and my 10-yr old daughter has shown it to every friend she has.I hope this is the first of many "Strong" books and would also love to see a similar book featuring boys challenging male stereotypes.A worthwhile purchase for anyone, but especially meaningful for kids between the ages of 6&16, IMO.
Strong Is the New Pretty: A Celebration of Girls Being Themselves by Kate T. Parker is I first skimmed this book in a bookstore and then ordered here on Amazon for my 2 daughters - 8 and 5 years old. Looking through it originally, I liked format of the book, which is pictures of actual subjects doing something they love along with a quote from them. The positive messages are also the things we try to instill in our girls daily.What I didn't quite expect is just how drawn my daughters would be to it. My 8 year old loves to read, and after handing her this book she proceeded to spend the next 2 hours reading every page. She absolutely loved it and showed me all her favorite pages. My 5 year old is just learning to read so we read it together, and she was also very engaged. On pages where there were multiple girls she wanted to know who was the one quoted.Today, and I'm sure more so in the future, young girls are misguided about what really matters. So much in society is placed on what others think (especially given social media), and I'd like for my girls to have a better foundation than that. Seeing the positive & "can do" quotes in this book, spoken by girls that they can relate to, can help them form that inner strength that will propel them in their lives.
