About the book
A Girl Can Build Anything, written by e.E. Charlton-Trujillo and Pat Zietlow Miller and illustrated by Keisha Morris, is an empowering ode to those who dream, build and create.
Have you ever dreamed of building something? Maybe something little—like a birdhouse? Or something big—like a skyscraper? If you can envision it, you can build it! This book celebrates all the different ways girls can make things—from tinkering to tool wielding, from ideas on paper to big, lived-out dreams that require brick and mortar. This fun and empowering ode to self expression will inspire readers to jump up and immediately start building.
