From Isabella Tewodros, the youngest scuba diver in the world, to Yetnebersh Nigussie, the blind Ethiopian lawyer fighting for equality and human rights, Ethiopia has produced some amazing girls and women. Some of them will become pilots and scientists, others will excel in sports or music, and still others will become teachers, farmers, mothers, leaders, business owners or artists. But no matter what they grow up to be, Ethiopian girls are full of incredible potential and deserve our appreciation and support. This beautiful look at the fabulous females of Ethiopia is illustrated with delicate watercolor portraits by Brenda Porter. Side by side bilingual text in English and Ethiopian languages like Amharic, Tigrinya and Afaan Oromo support bilingual readers in building vocabulary and developing fluency.

Open Hearts Big Dreams Ready Set Go (OHBD-RSG) Books were created to help increase the literacy rate in Ethiopia through giving readers books with stories in their heart languages, full of colorful illustrations with Ethiopian settings and details. Profits from book sales are used to create, print, and distribute more OHBD-RSG books to kids in Ethiopia, Africa's second most populous country. Ethiopia's population has a high percentage of children ages 0-14. Only a small percentage attend pre-school or kindergarten, and the adult literacy rate is around 50%.
