Girls Can Be Engineers

Written by Jamila H. Lindo 

From the Editor: 

Girls Can Be Engineers is a beautifully illustrated children’s book created to encourage girls to explore male-dominated fields, including Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (STEM/STEAM), and to remind boys and girls they can pursue each one of their dreams.

The book stars a young girl named Hannah who is in search of a career for her school’s upcoming Career Day. Each time she chooses a career, such as a veterinarian, pilot, and archeologist, she becomes discouraged because her chosen careers seem to be only for boys. With the help of her mother, a structural engineer, she learns she can do anything despite her gender.
