For all of us moms who were raised on Wonder Woman, Bionic Woman, and Isis, and now long to give our own daughters stories of brave, strong, and determined girls, I have a great child’s book to recommend. The Legend of the Lady Slipper by Lise Lunge-Larsen and Margi Preus is a lovely tale of an Ojibwe girl who saves her village from sickness and despair. Excellent reading choice for ages 4-8. And, a wonderful way to celebrate November as Native American Heritage month (and give our daughters something better than Hannah Montana). |
