Welcome to Litsy!

This book celebrates the strength of girls in all its forms: physical, mental, artistic, athletic, and more. It also celebrates friendship and talent. Parker‘s magnificent photos, short quotes, and intro paragraphs to each chapter pull together the themes. Great for girls of all ages. #photography

Hell yeah!!!

Not a fairytale but something we all need to read.

Pink‘s #justlikefire song is ultimately about ‘a girl being the captain of her own ship‘.
This is a powerful book containing over 175 portraits of girls doing what they love, and owning their strength. Parker dedicated the book to her two daughters, with the message - “be strong, be yourself, be honest and celebrate who you are.”

I picked this up randomly at the library, and I'm so glad I did!
The photos are beautiful and I loved all the quotes😁 #girlpower

We read Strong is the New Pretty, to our 1 year old daughter from time to time. One night we woke up to her like this. She‘d gotten the book off the shelf in the middle of the night and fallen asleep with it! I was a proud mama #bedtimestories

Moving on up! I got to move cubes today, so now I have a window seat! This is the cleanest my cube will probably ever be as I'm usually drowning in piles of books. But for now, they are lined up nicely on my shelves.

This is one of my favorite books and perfect for #feministfriday in the #awesomeautumnbooks challenge!

There are so many empowering and gorgeous photographs and quotes in this book!!

This is 1/2 the book haul!
Books & Books was amazing! ❤️ #GetIndie

I work at a 100% privately funded nonprofit that strives to inspire and ignite women and girls through sports and this book embodies what we strive to see in young girls. I absolutely love this book! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you're at #BookCon17, come stop by the Workman booth and say hello!!

Inspiring and empowering. A photographic celebration of the strength, determination, and fearlessness of girls being themselves. I can't wait to share it with my daughters. And my sons.

As a former cheerleader, this is probably one of my favorites!

"I have a smile on my lips, my hands on my hips, and spirit in my heart. Cheerleaders can jump, kick, toss, tumble, fly, catch, stunt, and be fierce--all in a bow." - Caroline R., age 15

"The liberation, thrill, and excitement when I climb into the cockpit is indescribable to those who have not taken the controls in their own hands. The sky is not the limit--it's just a view." - Aris, age 16

I am in love with this book! So many inspirational young women who are kicking butt! I may have to post a few quotes.

"I was really scared for my first triathlon. My mom took this shot of me the night before and told me that even though I was afraid to race, to try to look tough and fearless. I did, and when my mom showed me this shot, it made me believe I could be as tough as I look." - Ella, Age 9

My husband received a copy of this book for our daughter. It's all kinds of wonderful. A photobook featuring girls doing all kinds of inspiring things with quotes from each girl. Beautiful and powerful images.

Going with #girlpower for today's #muscles theme. I haven't read the book but have visited the blog. Lots of wonderful photographs of girls being athletic, active, silly, and strong.

Unexpected bookmail from a friend after she hears your library doesn't have a book she recommended is definitely one of the best kinds of bookmail. 👭📚💝

Sunday morning reads 📖📚💗

We are soooooo excited that our copy arrived today! Kate T. Parker has created an amazing photo project to empower girls and I can already tell this book will be well-loved in our home!

Home from getting a new tattoo and settling down to finish the last few pages of this truly wonderful book of photographs. Cannot recommend it enough - particularly if you're a young woman like me who could use a bit of an emotional boost. The girls featured in this are just incredible, with advice I know I could definitely stand to take, and the photos are stunning. Absolutely fantastic. #girlpower

I am so excited to read this book!

So good. Beautiful photography and it captures what it feels like to grow up as a girl and face the world.
