Adventurous aviation pioneer and author Amelia Earhart

won the U.S. Distinguished Flying Cross for being the first woman

to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. Although she disappeared in

1937 while attempting to fly around the world, she still serves as

an intrepid role model for girls to this day.

Perhaps literature’s earliest feminist heroines,

Charlotte Bronte’s enduring character remained honourable

and unwavering despite the many hardships she faced.

Ms. Parks stood up for her rights by remaining seated,

and in doing so, sparked a movement that led to the

long-overdue equal rights for African Americans.

 

 

HERMIONE GRANGER

Let’s face it—neither Harry nor Ron would’ve survived their

first year at Hogwarts without clever, resourceful Hermione.

Even in the most frightening situations, she always

had a solution.

 

 

LISA LING

This fearless journalist travels around the world and back

to deliver news coverage on controversial international

and domestic issues.

 

 

LISBETH SALANDER

Don’t let her outward appearance scare you. This

plucky protagonist fights on the side of good. Her

photographic memory, computer skills, and excellent sense

of observation make her terrific at bringing corrupt

individuals to justice.

 

 

QUEEN ELIZABETH I

It must have been tough being a female monarch in

patriarchal sixteenth century England, but Queen

Elizabeth I successfully ruled for 44 years. Her reign became

known as a “golden age” because drama, music, literature,

architecture, and exploration flourished during that time.

 

 

SCARLETT O’HARA

Transforming from a Southern belle into a strong,

independent plantation owner and then left with nothing,

she picked herself up, dusted herself off, and reminded us

all that tomorrow is a new day.

 

 

MINDY MACREADY

http://cdn3.list25.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Hit-Girl.jpg

This 11-year-old fictional crime fighter prefers butterfly

knives. Any other kid would probably be afraid to fight just

one hard core criminal, but Hit Girl takes on several at

a time and makes it look easy.
