Book List: Boss Black Girls Living Series
Every day young black girls are bombarded with negative messages from different directions. Those messages create the flawed idea that the destiny of a young black girl is failure, struggle, and hopelessness. Adding to the negative messaging from “the world” is the most crippling negativity of all – the words young black girls silently say to themselves.
Our Boss Black Girls Living series is a collection of paperback journals created for girls ages 12 – 16 years old. These journals are designed to inspire, encourage, and support healthy habits and a positive mindset. Each journal focuses on a specific wellness topic such as self-love and care, creative self-expression, and family love and legacy.
When your tween or teen opens one of our journals, they press pause, put negativity in time out, and enter a safe, personal space to explore who they are in order to become who they want to be. Our journals make thoughtful and inspiring gifts for the beautiful young black girls in your life. Collect and share them all! Please scroll to view our current selection.
