Her Story is the first in a planned children’s book series for 7- to 12-year-old girls that features 30 South African women whose lives inspire. The first title in this series, Daughters of Modjadji, features women in the book from diverse settings, sectors and spheres of life. Their stories reflect not only the multiple roles that women play in society, but also the obstacles they face as a result of race, class and most importantly; their gender. The book is centred on themes of affirmation, identity and gender. The stories are accompanied by vivid illustrations and interactive comic strips. The empowerment of girls is a fundamental building block of the publication, as seen by most of the writers and illustrators in the book being female.
"I'm stuck, feel unfulfilled, I am not succeeding. I don't know where to start, I'm not sure what to fix and I really not sure what to do or which direction to take." This dilemma can happen to us at any age – and this is when we need to find the tools to create a clearer picture about who we are, what we want and how to go about reaching our true potential. This is the work of Linda Dirmeik, creator of Attimo – Attitude - Image – Motivation. "AIM For What You Want" is a Workbook developed and nurtured from Linda's own life experience and research, grew from her observations and concern that somewhere along the way, we lose the power to be all we can be. Negative reinforcements about who we are and what we can do – from the home, school or work environment – add layers of negativity, which seep into our attitude and approach to life. We eventually believe these thoughts, stories and attitudes and use them over and over again, eroding the courage, confidence and belief that we can be any different. The "AIM For What You Want" workbook creates a reality (devoid of the thinking that limits our potential) around five key areas of life: our social circle, our family, our physical being our ethical being and our career/education. Creating this reality is a powerful mechanism towards change, growth and unlocking our potential. Linda encourages moms and educators to explore these life management skills for the people whose lives they influence.
A motivational and hopeful school handbook for students navigating
uncertain times, by the nation's Head Teacher, Matthew Burton.

What do you think of when you hear the word 'hero'? Is it the wall-climbing, cape-wearing, villain-fighter you see in comics and films? Heroes can actually come in all forms, shapes and sizes.

From small acts of kindness to inventions that have saved the lives of hundreds of people, every person in this book has found their passion - or their superpower. No matter how big or small it might be, your power can be used to change the world for the better too.
