Founded in 1994 by feminist activists Andrea Johnston and Gloria Steinem, the Girls Speak Out program has inspired thousands of girls around the world to build self-esteem and hold on to their true selves. In a series of workshops, Johnston facilitates honest discussion with girls of all ages about self-worth, friendships, equality, the media, the power of a girls' movement, and female models throughout history to show how each girl can explore her unique place in the world. In this revised edition of Girls Speak Out, Johnston provides a step-by-step guide to finding and expressing one's individuality. Featuring interactive exercises, poems and stories from girls, and excerpts from such eminent writers as Alice Walker and Sandra Cisneros, Girls Speak Out is an empowering handbook for girls (and their friends) everywhere. Book jacket.

Gr 5-9A book based on a self-esteem and consciousness-raising workshop for young women, developed by the author and Gloria Steinem. It's an intriguing account, but it may be more meaningful to parents and teachers than to its intended audience. "Girls Speak Out" is the name given to the workshops, typically given on two consecutive Saturdays and characterized by the author as "an experience we have in a room with other girls and women." The workshops explore a broad range of subjects, from prehistoric images of women to understanding sexism to self-discovery, encouraging young women to find their own true voices and "speak out" through discussion, games, and writing. "Even if you can't be in this room with us," Johnston explains, "you can have some of the same experiences with the book." Thus, this title explains how the workshops are run and presents some of the responses and writing that participants have contributed across the country. Although no doubt the actual workshops are powerful and empowering, this presentation lacks focus and practicality: it's not really designed as a how-to guide, nor is it inspirational for private journals or self-study. However, the actual writing of the girls is compelling; adults working with adolescents may find the "Girls Speak Out" concept and model easy to use and adapt in different settings.Cyrisse Jaffee, formerly at Newton Public Schools, MA (c) Copyright 2010.

PW said that this book, developed from Johnston's nationwide series of girls' personal growth workshops, "is probably best reserved for feminist adults who wish to learn techniques for conducting workshops of their own." Ages 9-14. (Mar.)r (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Introduction by Gloria Steinem. Written for those unable to attend Girls Speak Out, the nationwide educational and self-esteem building program for girls ages nine to fifteen, the book describes the two-day workshops that involve journal writing, storytelling, and study of ancient female artifacts. Girls may be inspired by the reprinted stories written by participants, but overall, the program translates very poorly to book form. Bib. From HORN BOOK 1997, (c) Copyright 2010.
