Overview

Girlhood is amazing. Sometimes, though, society seems not to know it. Even the strongest girl's sense of self can be lost in a sea of inaccurate labels. What if we could give our girls a reset-a reminder of the power of who they are? Enter Sweet Fire. This lyrical and inviting text sings permission: permission to live in joy; permission to love self and others; and a pass to be both complex and amazing. Sweet Fire is more than a book. It's an anthem--a concept story aimed at reframing the narrative we tell girls about their possibilities. With its combination of rich, empowering text and vibrant, inspiring illustrations, this book invites all readers to see their ""fire"" as a gift with the power to light up the world!

"""Mitchell's poem features clean rhymes and sometimes syncopated rhythms that keep the poetry fresh. Repeated phrases invite lap readers to chime in. The focus on Sweet Fire's virtues makes this feel like a tribute to children who've been told too often to cover up who they are...A vibrant book with a good lesson for young leaders."" -Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"
