(3) K-3 Illustrated by Loveis Wise. This empowering picture book celebrates the strength, diversity, courage, and unity of girls around the world. Free-flowing digital illustrations, blending collage and social justice art traditions, reinforce the message of collective action. The text uses rhyme, repetition, and alliteration to create a chant-like rhythm that makes each page feel like a rallying cry. Uplifting and inclusive, it encourages young readers to find their voices and stand together, reminding us that when one girl rises, we all do.
