most influential book #3- Unbowed: A Memoir by Wangari Maathai


I haven't even read this book yet, but I know I am going to love it. Wangari Maathai is such an inspiration to me.  I am almost afraid to read this book because I think it will likely be one of those that rattles me to the core and might actually help change the course of my life. I'm going to order it today and see what happens when I open the pages. Here is the preview.

"We need to teach our daughters that their time and money are limited resources- and that their lives are richer when they invest those resources in their courage, brains and heart. Investing an overabundance of time and money in the latest fashion fad only plays into the hands of marketers willing to sacrifice a girl's confidence in order to make a buck."
