Book
Wonder girls : changing our world / by Paola Gianturco & Alex Sangster ; foreword by Musimbi Kanyoro.
"Paola Gianturco and her eleven-year-old granddaughter documented the work of fifteen girl-led nonprofit groups in thirteen countries in Asia and Central Asia, North and Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and Oceania. They interviewed and photographed 90 girls - girls who lobby U.S. senators; see Mexican girls invent mobile phone apps; meet Malawian girls who convinced Parliament to outlaw child marriage. And you will meet other girls as they write blogs, petitions, poetry, create radio shows to promote their causes. The Global Fund for Women will receive 100% of the authors' royalties from this book."--Provided by the publisher.
