Just as every force in nature behaves in its own special way, just as every force around us has its own unique purpose in shaping the world... so does every girl.

This lyrical, STEM-focused girl-power picture book uses the author’s background as an engineer to describe the various forces at work in our world by personifying each one as a girl. Each stanza showcases a different girl and scientific force to create a diverse cast of individuals, simplifying complex forces into memorable characters. Back matter on forces rounds out this teaching tool. And each “I am” statement reinforces girls to see themselves in science!

I am a force to be reckoned with.

I am gravity.

I am buoyancy.

I am friction.
