GIRLS WHO ROCKED THE WORLD
Book ID/图书代码： 01812012B53441
English Summary/英文概要： A fully updated, comprehensive collection of true, inspirational profiles of successful young women throughout history who made their mark on the world before age twenty.
Young women today crave strong, independent role models to look to for motivation. Now, fully updated after more than a decade, Girls Who Rocked the World offers a fun and inspiring collection of influential stories. A variety of achievements, interests, and ethnic backgrounds are represented, from Harriet Tubman and Coco Chanel to S.E. Hinton and Maya Lin—each with their own incredible story of how they created life-changing opportunities for themselves. Personal aspirations from today’s young women are also interspersed throughout the book, as well as profiles of teenagers who are out there rocking the world right now—girls like Winter Vinecki, the creator of the non-profit organization Team Winter, and Jazmin Whitley, the youngest designer to show at L.A. Fashion Week.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 透過他們的故事，啟發我們的青年，創造自己不凡的人生！ 現今女性的地位已不同以往，女性在以往「男性為尊」的社會，往往不易受到重視。但是隨著時間及觀念的改變，許多傑出女性的成就及心路歷程更令人欽佩。
從美國廢奴運動的推守之一Harriet Tubman及法國時尚先鋒Coco Chanel、美國小說家S.E. Hinton與美國藝術家Maya Lin等，他們每個人都有其不同成長的故事，但都能掌握其人生的重要時刻，成功的完成自己的夢想，他們同樣激勵許多現代的青少年，啟發他們在不同領域誕創造出不凡的成就，例如：美國十一歲女童Winter Vinecki為籌錢資助治療前列腺癌的研究，不斷參加慈善運動賽，最後創立攝護腺癌研究基金會，提供年輕科學家3年的研究經費；史上年紀最小在L.A.時裝展發表作品的小小設計師Jazmin Whitley等。(Vincent)
