Cultivating Character With Empowering Books For Preschool Girls

By Rosella Campbell


In several countries around the world, young women still fight to have a voice that is equal to that of their male counterparts. This occurs in many different parts of society. In politics, business, education and many other areas, women are prevented from contributing to their country in the way that they would want to. Empowering books for preschool girls encourage youngsters of both genders to be responsible for their lives.

There are so many characteristics that make each person unique. Everything from hairstyle, to the level of education that a person has, to where they live or where their family is from, can affect how they see themselves. Generally, how someone sees themselves affects how far they can go with achieving their dreams, whether that person is male or female.

There are texts quite importantly focused on individuals of different ethnic groups. These help children of all cultures to learn more about themselves and others. Everyone learns about the value in people across the world and that all of us should be proud of our heritage and our physical characteristics. They increase self acceptance.

Real historical figures have made an impact in the world in many ways. There are several texts that focus on educating readers about the female leaders who have positively impacted the earth. They emphasize the qualities that made it possible for these individuals to make a mark on history, such as persistence and being themselves.

The message of striving to do as well as you can is paired with that of self acceptance. Girls who have not yet reached pre school are shown that being accepted is not dependent on being perfect. They learn that they are perfectly beautiful people just as they are and do not have to master any particular skill in order to be loved.

Self appreciation is important among individuals of all ages and is taught through artwork. Colorful, interesting illustrations that accurately depict the story are extremely important for the young readers. Many of them have not developed the level of literacy required to understand the whole story through words alone, so interesting pastel and watercolor artwork plays a vital role.

Simple stories are employed to show girls that embarking on a journey does not mean that they will not face challenges. They are taught that obstacles are a normal part of achieving what they want and that when problems arise, it does not mean that they will fail. The heroines are brave in the face of monsters, bad weather and other problems and keep going.

Books that are developed especially for young kids allow them to see that everyone faces anxiety and pressures. They are likely to experience the same things at different points in their lives. However, how they deal with each situation is up to them. At a formative age, it is important for children to receive information that helps them to form healthy values. Girls learn by reading texts like these that they should appreciate and respect themselves.
