Key Selling Points: Kate Graham is the previous author of Govern Like a Girl: The Women Who Became Canada's First Ministers, which profiled the young lives of the women who grew up to be elected to the highest positions of power in Canada. Run the World like a Girl: International Women Leaders is a follow-up on a global scale, and shows how running the world "like a girl" is a compliment. Like Govern Like a Girl, Run the World Like a Girl focuses on the childhood and young adulthood of women political leaders, giving young readers a glimpse of their lives from a peer perspective. A great introduction to politics for kids, telling the stories of these twelve women from childhood to the highest positions of political power. The book is a celebration and also an age-appropriate analysis of the challenges women face in politics and leadership roles in general. The twelve women featured come from across the world, were born in different generations, and differ in political views, but they all worked hard to make a difference. The book addresses questions like what were they passionate about in their younger lives? What motivated them to run for office? As well as an overview of what they accomplished once they were elected. An interactive, accessible book for kids featuring illustrations of all twelve women, sidebars with historical statistics, a map, and more.
