About

Let's celebrate awesome girls in books!

We're Aurélia and Timothy Sanders of Curious Charts, and we're making a wall chart that captures the world of bold and brainy girls for teen/adult readers.

Can you believe how many amazing girl protagonists are out there, just waiting to be read? We've spent months researching over 100 characters created by some of the most celebrated and innovative authors of young adult fiction. Using hand drawn illustrations and detailed categories, we're here to show readers how to find the most heroic girls in the English language – including many they may not have heard of!
