**Thank you to NetGalley, authors Jessica Dee Humphreys and Rona Ambrose, and Kids Can Press for the eARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.**

This is a beautiful book full of the stories of strong, powerful, brave, and inspirational young girls who are out to make a change in the world. I love that this book takes the stories of real girls around the world and shares their brilliant efforts at making a change in the community for which they live. 

I absolutely love that this story begins and ends with the metaphor of growing a garden and becoming the gardener for the garden that is our world. 

The only hesitation I have about this book is in the beginning there is a constant reference to half the world being girls. It just feels like this is an undersupported thought that could have been better executed, though I understand what they were trying to accomplish. 

Thank you, Flora, Hana, Abuya, Liliya, Sokanon, Mallika, Keeya, Zarah, Aster, and all the amazing, brave young children out in the world pushing for change. 

As many have said before me, this is a great book for ALL children and families. I definitely see myself sharing and recommending this story in the future.
