★☆☆☆☆
Great idea, terrible execution
I understand why this book is so popular, the premise is right on point. I saw an ad for it, loved the idea, and didn't even think twice before dropping 35 bucks on this kids book, guess I should have done my research before being sucked in. This is one of those, whish I had that idea moments, where the authors are for sure going to make some good $ fast, but come on, at least try. Each page is more poorly written than the next with. I get that they are trying to squish some extraordinary stories into one page, but it reads so choppy and the amount of time I spend rewriting it in my head as I read it to my daughter so that it makes sense is frustrating. Lastly, and probably most importantly, being that this was written for kids, I am not thrilled about the way a lot of the messages are delivered. Many of these women have overcome some difficult beginnings, and while that message is important to deliver, there is a right and wrong way to explain it to a child and this book puts no effort or care into the delivery to children.
