Dear Ijeawele, or a Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions by Chimanda Ngozi Adichie

Dear Ijeawele, or a Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions by Chiamana Ngozi Adichie, 63 pages

This was a very insightful book.  Written by the author to her friends newborn daughter, it is a guide on how to raise a feminist.  The book touches on self reliance.  She also suggests girls not only play with girl toys but also with boy toys such as helicopters and cars.  She encourages girls to ask questions.  The book's message is how to raise strong, independent daughters which in today's society is very relevant.
