The Girl God

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A book for children young & old, celebrating the Divine Female. Magically illustrated by Elisabeth Slettnes with quotes from various faith traditions & feminist thinkers. Praise for The Girl God "The Girl God: a picture book to show girls that god can be a girl, god is inside, god is an idea, a positive action or good deed, god is open to creative interpretation and should be about everyone. A great book to dispel the myth that god is male with wonderful illustrations by Elisabeth Slettnes. Empowerment for our girl children." -a girl's guide to taking over the world "A deceptively simple story about a whimsical young girl named Helani Claire, who would make Emily Dickinson smile as she deconstructs the patriarchal god of her father with the bluntness of a child. Akin to: If Kate Chopin was still alive, writing (and self-publishing) children's books. Elisabeth Slettnes' colorful paintings are feasts for the spirit, as are the addition of selected quotes and poems. Wisdom abounds." -Philadelphia Weekly "This book will be one I treasure, for it is rare indeed-the articulation of the divine feminine for both children and adults, a bridge between our spiritual beginning and our spiritual future, a spark for the reawakening of humanity." -Elizabeth Hall Magill, author of Defining Sexism "This is a delightfully rich book that can spark conversation and reflection on many levels -and one worth returning to again and again." -David Weiss, author of When God Was a Little Girl "This book is a must for our daughters." -Christy Turlington "...a remarkable addition to interfaith literature for children and especially for young girls." -North American Interfaith Network

Autorenporträt

Trista Hendren founded Girl God Books in 2011 to support a necessary unravelling of the patriarchal worldview of divinity. Her first book-The Girl God, a children's picture book-was a response to her own daughter's inability to see herself reflected in the divine. Since then, she has published more than 45 books with hundreds of contributors from across the globe. Originally from Portland, Oregon, she now lives in Bergen, Norway.
