New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today Bestseller!

Girls can rule the world—all they need is confidence. This empowering, entertaining guide from the bestselling authors of The Confidence Code gives girls the essential yet elusive code to becoming bold, brave, and fearless.

It’s a paradox familiar to parents everywhere: girls are achieving like never before, yet they’re consumed with doubt on the inside. Girls worry constantly about how they look, what people think, whether to try out for a sports team or school play, why they aren’t getting “perfect” grades, and how many likes and followers they have online.

Katty Kay and Claire Shipman use cutting-edge science and research, as well as proven methods of behavioral change, to reach girls just when they need it the most—the tween and teen years.

Packed with true stories from tons of real girls, The Confidence Code for Girls teaches girls to embrace risk, deal with failure, and be their most authentic selves.

If you or the girl in your life loved The Gutsy Girl or Rad American Women A-Z, you'll love this.

Good but I felt like it did not help it did the opposite. Sometimes I see some bias with genders.

I don't think this helped. The performance by who he it was read was great. But the book it's self made me less confident. And why was it just for girls. But try it in real life. The real book not the audio one.

FYI, This book is for teens, but a great read!

I had no clus this book was for teens! Lol. I'm 31 years old and still received a lot from this book. Awesome read! I wish it was around when I was in middle school.

Good book for tweens!

Worth reading since confidence is important and learning that we all make mistakes. It explains that failure actually helps us grow.

Everything

I love that you made examples and actual challenges that you would do , and I love the book because my kid listens to it every night and overall it’s just a good book
