Books of this sort are often plagued with hackneyed ideas, and there are plenty of tired cliches in the introductions to each section of this book. The photo captions are quoted from the girls in the pictures, and are a bit more fresh and original. The photos are the part I loved, though: they are wonderful. I recommend skipping the reading altogether, and just looking at the images.

This book celebrates not just physical strength, but also mental resilience and the courage to live as one wishes, with joy and abandon and without regard for the expectations of others- whether that's studying science, helping others, playing in the mud, piloting planes or dancing with the dog.
