I Am Still a Girl!: Whimsical Poetry About Serious Girlology - Hardcover

by Alice Engel (Author), Hiruni Kariyawasam (Illustrator)

I can like anything in the world that I see.

And one thing I like...is the girl that is me!

Have you ever worried that you're bad at being a good girl?

Well, stop worrying, sister! Girlology isn't something you have to practice--you're born with it. It's not about what you do or what you wear. It's not about makeup, and it's NOT about fabulous hair.

This book's playful poetry and illustrations celebrate girls of all hairstyles, play styles, and clothing styles, while its basic biological facts confirm that girls of all kinds are born girly--right down to their bones and chromosomes.

Are you weird and wild? Nerdy and mild?

The only "you" in the crazy crew?

Good news: You're still a girl!
