About The Book

In February 2020, I visited a remote migrant settlement in Gujarat, India through the Learning and Migration Program (LAMP) from American India Foundation (AIF).

I saw little girls crowded into classrooms with hope shining in their eyes. One girl, Ezra, was all smiles and excited to meet us. When I asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up, she kept smiling but did not answer, maybe because she did not know what the options were.

I realized the value of showing little girls examples of accomplished women who look just like them and who have achieved success in professions that were considered unsuitable, or even impossible, for women.

That's why I created this book. Of the many professions where women are under-represented, I picked just a few.

I want all little girls around the world to know this: the glass ceiling has been shattered and the sky is no longer the limit!
