GirlsCanDo.com began as a book called The Girl Pages: A Handbook of the Best Resources for Strong, Confident, Creative Girls (Hyperion 2000) by Charlotte Milholland. Doing the research for the book it was clear how much is out there for girls (with more being created all the time!). But sometimes the hard part is finding it. We wanted to make that easy. So, take a look and let us know what you think and what you'd like to see more of (or less of!). Your contributions and feedback are really important to us.
