This little journal is in the same style as the Rad Women books (Rad Women Worldwide, Rad Women A-Z) and is a great way to help young ladies connect their lives to the lives of these awesome role models. Colorful, illustrated pages draw you in and the questions scattered throughout help guide the journal writing to focus on personal growth. There is plenty of space to just right what you feel, but the questions are what really tie this to the Rad Women books. These questions help a young person realize that they can live extraordinary lives too, filled with accomplishments and fulfill their dreams. I think it is probably best aimed at middle-schoolers, old enough to really give some of these questions real thought and young enough to let these personal reflections shape their futures. I will be showing the journal to my high school students next week and see what their take on it is.
