Being girly and strong are not mutually exclusive in Glamorina: Tiarra Runs for President, a kids’ book written by Nicole Jackson and illustrated by Rena Chen.
Kids read along with the protagonist, Tiarra, as she recruits her friends — including her pet, Glam Cat — to prove that girly girls can be strong and powerful. Clad in a tutu, Tiarra and the readers learn important lessons about being confident in yourself and your abilities.
This book can spark dialogue about being a good leader, standing up to bullies, and being true to yourself. Through stories like Tiarra’s, kids can become empowered from a young age to work toward their goals, despite the obstacles. After all, leaders come in all shapes and sizes.
Glamorina: Tiarra Runs for President is available now on Amazon or at local bookstores.
