Children today face an uncertain future, and parents and teachers can´t fully predict what´s in store for their daughter and sons. But one thing is clear: Our kids need a new set of skills to succeed. Girls, in particular, must nurture essential traits to fully flourish.

Combining compelling research, personal stories, and practical advice on timely questions, Porges delves into hot-button subjects like how to harness girls´ voices and boost girls´ self-esteem, and shows how little things have a big impact when nurturing vital skills like compe
