A collection of over thirty real girls' stories from around the world. Their personal philosophies, dreams and hopes for themselves and the future. Beautifully designed and richly illustrated this book reveals what it is to be a young woman at the beginning of the 21st century.
Based on interviews and quotes from around the world, 'Real Girls' Stories' shines the spotlight on girls in our midst, revealing their experiences, thoughts, beliefs, hopes and concerns as they face the reality of life as young women in the 21st century.
Through her travels to many parts of the world, including war zones and underdeveloped regions, Anthea Paul has met and been inspired by hundreds of young women. There was no casting process for girlosophy girls, rather all of the thirty girls featured here either naturally connected with Anthea or somehow came into her world. Personal and intimate, yet full of a practical resolve and a positiveness, 'Real Girls' Stories' gives a glimpse into the lives of remarkable young women. They speak of family matters, love and the role of the heart, of work and studies, the future, and a sense if their unique purpose and destiny, and of their understanding of the mystical side of spirituality.
'Real Girls' Stories' celebrates and salutes the role model in all of us.
As with all of Anthea Paul's books 'Real Girls' Stories' is beautifully illustrated and insightful, and speaks directly to all women, from the very young to the wonderfully young at heart.
