International Day of the Girl: German Foundation Promotes Strong Female Role Models in Literature
The International Day of the Girl, celebrated annually on October 11, aims to raise awareness of global discrimination faced by girls and bolster their rights. In Germany, the Stiftung Lesen, under the patronage of the Federal President, supports this cause by promoting strong female protagonists in children's literature.
The Reading Foundation recommends five inspiring books for strong girls: 'From a Girl Who Loved to Write', 'The Little Queens', 'Game of Noctis', 'Fantastic Female Scientists', and 'Ada Blackjack - Survival on the Bear Island'. These stories feature girls overcoming fears, demonstrating inner strength, and displaying courage. The foundation's website offers more book and media tips for ongoing reading inspiration.
Girls tend to enjoy reading more than boys, with better performance in reading competence tests. They also prefer a variety of genres. The Stiftung Lesen works tirelessly to ensure all German children can read, collaborating with numerous organizations and institutions.
On the International Day of the Girl, the Stiftung Lesen highlights the importance of strong female role models in literature. By encouraging girls to read, we foster their personal growth, empower them, and promote gender equality.
