My youngest daughter loves to have books that she can fill in and capture things about herself that will let her find out more about herself. This book really allowed her to identify goals, dreams and more and it made her think broader about the world that she wants for herself...The book also does a great job at motivating and inspiring and if your child is anything like mine, this book will bring hours of insightful fun!
