Recipient of the prestigious Readers' Favorite five-star review.
It is never too early to inspire self-belief and leadership qualities in girls.
As early as age six, girls’ levels of ambition and self-confidence in their abilities are shaped by societal stereotypes about gender.
Join the movement to empower the next generation of female leaders.
Only 26.5% of parliamentarians are women worldwide.
A US Report to Congress found that at the current rate of progress, it will take 145.5 years to achieve gender parity.
More people might vote in 2024 than in any other year in history. With elections in at least 64 countries and the European Union, 1.5 billion people are expected to vote in national elections. 2024 will be a record year for democracy, with 49 per cent of the world’s population living in countries due to hold elections over the coming 12 months.
Research shows that countries that provide a safe and enabling environment for women and girls to participate equitably in politics and public life have more inclusive and effective policy outcomes, are more peaceful and stable, and have higher economic growth. The ability of women and girls to participate safely, freely, and equally in political life and in society is a prerequisite for democracy.

"This was such a powerful yet sweet book. This is a gift I would give to all my nieces. . ."
S.W, Amazon"I can read it to my kids and feel the empowerment radiating in them and on each page. . . "
"I loved how it teaches young girls that they can grow up to become anything -- even a president . . . "
"Its great for kids to have dreams. this book just talks about that beautifully! Its a great read and I have a good feeling the children will love this book . . . "
Catherine P. NetGalleyThe book refocuses the lens on how crucial respected women are to a healthy society. It provides a spotlight on how little girls can still achieve great things.
One might say this is a call to action for leaders of the world to step up and do the right thing for everyone no matter their race, religion, gender, or cultural background.
The book is intended for young children but citizens of all ages would benefit from reading and reflecting on the aspirational traits the president in this story possesses. Traits like honesty, courage, active listening, and problem-solving that parents and educators strive to instill in children.
Ellwyn Autumn, Pre-School Teacher, Professional Reviewer"My favorite of the four book series of which I've read. I would gift this to a teacher, young person, nursery, and or a Sunday School class . . . "
Mary Ellen, Amazon"As a mom of girls, this books is a MUST read. This brought up so many great conversations that I don't normally get to have with them. It also addressed responsibilities of a leader and "what it's like to be a leader", as I told my girls. This book talks about values and I just loved that it had a woman president to show my girls they can do anything ❤️"
Marah Thompson, NetGalley
