One lucky reader can win a virtual school event with Shelina Janmohamed and 5 signed copies of BeYOUtiful for their school library – perfect for independent readers in Year 6 and secondary!
While hiding under her superhero headscarf, Shelina became an accidental author writing about some of the most important topics facing girls and women today. A global expert on women’s representation, Shelina is a familiar voice on radio and TV. Her first book ‘Love in a Headscarf‘ was a ground-breaking coming of age memoir that challenged our understanding of what it means to be a young woman today.
Start a girl-powered revolution – ‘BeYOUtiful‘ gives girls a framework to navigate the opinions and images they see so they can form their own opinions and have the confidence to stand by them. After all, deciding for YOURSELF is one of the most activist things you can do.
To be in with a chance of winning simply download the BeYOUtiful resource here and send in the promise you want to make. This can be an individual or class entries.
Here’s Shelina’s promise: I promise to wear my heart glasses whenever I look at myself and the people around me and to see the beauty in who we are. Not what others tell me. I’ll work hard to make sure all of us believe we are beautiful.
