Media Reviews

Praise for The Daring Book for Girls

'Gung-ho girly advice...the boys had their Dangerous book, now this one is for us'
Good Housekeeping

'I can't imagine not wanting to get stuck in to The Daring Book for Girls. It's an admirable project'
Jenny Diski, Sunday Times

'The authors mix inspiring tales of girls who made good . . . with a scrap bag of how-tos for girlish activities . . . The Daring Book for Girls keeps . . . practical knowledge from getting drowned in the techno-flow' The New York Times

'We've had The Dangerous Book for Boys - now it's our turn. Refreshingly, it's not about lipstick tips, but pioneering women who inspire us' Glamour
