Try and Stop Me! Marianne Cooper

When a girl dares to dream, she can be anything.



This is a story for all the little girls who have been told that girls can't do that, be that, dream that. A message to empower girls to dream of their passion and make it happen! And for any naysayers, those girls can say, "Try and stop me!"



This vibrant and playful story follows a diverse selection of girls who have a zeal for a hobby or profession that they are determined to pursue. But when grown-ups, their siblings, their parents or grandparents tell them those things are only for boys, these self-confident and unfaltering girls tell their doubters, "Try and stop me!"



Whether it's growing up to be a firefighter, joining the military, becoming a NASCAR race car driver, building things as a carpenter, or creating as a tattoo artist, these girls are unstoppable. And their grit, determination, and passion will have them reaching their dreams, no matter what anyone tells them.



This delightful story carries a weighty lesson for readers that they can be anything if they put their mind to it, empowering young girls to be powerful women.
