The Warrior Girl Way

Inside the heart of every girl lives a fierce, mighty warrior just waiting to spring into action.

You are your own biggest hero. You are a Warrior Girl. Warriors like you are born with a powerful fighting spirit to help you overcome your life’s challenges. You carry it with you everywhere you go, and it’s always available when you need it. You don’t need anyone to make you tough—you’re already tough. When you choose to believe in your own strength, you arm yourself with courage and confidence. There’s no challenge too big to tackle once you embrace the warrior power you hold inside you!

Inspired by the discovery of her beloved grandmother’s family connection to Japanese samurai—and the eight virtues of samurai warriors, called bushido—Meika Yates Hines shows girls of all ages simple ways to get in touch with the resilient, powerful fighting warrior spirits that live in their hearts.

Part message of love and guidance from a mother to her three daughters and part girl-power manifesto, The Warrior Girl Way encourages girls to battle through their fears, cultivate their grit, and trust their instincts as they face the obstacles of adolescence and beyond.

As the author’s stirring full-color mixed-media images illustrate, no two Warrior Girls are alike—each possesses her own unique skills and talents.

The Warrior Girl Way—it’s like getting an awesome pep talk from a trusted girl-power sensei.
