An inspirational and empowering audiobook about what mothers, especially Black mothers, want their daughters to know.
This inspiring audiobook gives girls permission to let their lights shine. They want all girls to know that there are no limits on what they can achieve.
One by one, common misconceptins are flipped and replaced by empowering statements such as your hair is like a magnificent crown or you are like the moon among stars, or you shine the brightest. They suggest that if people doubt you or try to discourage your ambitions, you should disregard them and pursue your dreams to the fullest. Page after page offers examples of how girls can respond to discouraging situations and triumph.
Powerful words encourage and inspire all girls everywhere, but particularly Black girls. For Our Daughters is a testament to love who you are, exactly as you are.
