Careers for Girls

Careers for Girls

'Careers for Girls' is aimed at 8 to 12 year olds, and features diverse and inclusive role models who work in STEM, trade, and art careers; whether these women are walking around, using wheelchairs or wearing prosthetic limbs, they are all strong and capable.

With feminism, gender bias, and equality being hot topics, this book aims to target all three with female characters who encourage young girls to blaze their own trail through traditionally male-dominated careers; especially in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math sector.

This book is a map for young girls that can start them on a journey of discovery, to find out what they really want to be, when they grow up.

Author states: "Young girls today are growing up in an image-conscious world that is teaching them to care less about ‘making a difference’ and more about making their faces look different. The young women in this book want people to look at them and think smart first, not ‘pretty’ first. They prefer a makeup-free look and don’t mind a few hairs out of place. They want to help young girls realise that what they can look like is not as important as what they can do.”

Many books and toys aimed at young girls seem to feature a lot of pink, with princesses, fairies and skinny dolls with makeup; all fun to play with and read about but where are the role models to balance out girls’ expectations of real life? Who can make them feel worthy and valued? Who can show girls they can become important in their field of work, invent new technology, discover new medicines, inspire others, or choose a career that could save people, animals or the planet? Girls have a right to help shape the world they are going to live in as adults; and STEM jobs can help.

'Careers for Girls' features:
- Explanations of STEM, why it’s important, and the barriers that stop girls getting into it.
- Descriptions of STEM, trade and art careers and what’s so great about them.
- A note about friends, and a ‘Girls Supporting Girls’ logo.
- A poem and jingle about ‘Tap Water’ for green homes and schools.
- Drawing and fill-in activities, and a ‘Mindfulness’ moment.
- Original hand-drawn artwork with Irish places of interest.
- Colourful backgrounds with lots of conversation starters, drawn especially for younger readers.

Give a young girl in your life the gift of a bright future, and let her dream BIG.
