By Rhonda Leet, Megan Walker (Illustrator)
A father challenges gender norms to empower his daughter.
Franny's father believes in equality, teaching her that she can achieve anything. From fixing bikes to ballet recitals, he defies gender norms, supporting her dreams and her mother's career. How does his feminist approach shape Franny's future?
Franny’s Father is a Feminist. It’s simple, really! He knows that girls can do anything boys can do, and raises Franny to believe that she deserves all the same rights, freedoms, and opportunities to fulfill her dreams that he had. Through sweet, straight-forward prose, Franny’s Father portrays the loving bond between a young girl, and her father who isn’t afraid of bucking gender norms in order to ensure that his daughter grows up smart, strong, and full of self confidence. From teaching her to fix her own bicycle and splashing in the mud, to cheering at ballet recitals and supporting Franny’s mother in her career, Franny’s Father displays what it means for a man to be a Feminist, and how male Feminism can play a vital role in the empowerment of young women.
