A few years ago, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie received a letter from a dear friend from childhood, asking her how to raise her baby girl as a feminist.  is Adichie's letter of response where she writes of fifteen invaluable suggestions that are compelling and direct. Wryly funny and perspective, the book presents how to empower a daughter to become a strong, independent woman from encouraging her to choose a helicopter, and not only a doll, as a toy if she so desires; having open conversations with her about clothes, makeup, and sexuality; debunking the myth that women are somehow biologically arranged to be in the kitchen making dinner, and that men can "allow" women to have full careers.
