Standing on Her Shoulders

A stunning love letter to the important women who shape

us - from our own mothers and grandmothers to the legends

who paved the way for girls and women everywhere.

Standing on Her Shoulders is a celebration

of the strong women who influence us - from our mothers,

sisters, aunts and grandmothers to the women who fought

for equality and acceptance.

learn about the powerful and trailblazing women

who laid the path for their own lives and empowers them to become

role models themselves.

a loving intergenerational family and encourages

girls to find female heroes in their own lives.
