Dear Ijeawele

<b><b>NATIONAL BESTSELLER </b>- The award-winning author of <i>We Should All Be Feminists</i> and <i>Americanah </i>gives us this powerful statement about feminism today--written as a letter to a friend.</b> <p>A few years ago, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie received a letter from a childhood friend, a new mother who wanted to know how to raise her baby girl to be a feminist. <i>Dear Ijeawele</i> is Adichie's letter of response: fifteen invaluable suggestions--direct, wryly funny, and perceptive--for how to empower a daughter to become a strong, independent woman. Filled with compassionate guidance and advice, it gets right to the heart of sexual politics in the twenty-first century, and starts a new and urgently needed conversation about what it really means to be a woman today. <p><b>A Skimm Reads Pick ● An NPR Best Book of the Year</b>
