Boss Women: Seven African-American Women Who Built Their Businesses From the Ground Up by Gwen Richardson Jan10

Book Excerpt:

"Boss Women features seven African-American women who started their businesses by
themselves or as co-founders with family members. Although some of these women may
not have high public profiles, they represent a variety of industries, and all of their
businesses are successful. Some enterprises are relatively new; others have been
established for decades.

The businesswomen profiled in this book are Janice M. Adams (JMA Solutions),
Valerie Daniels-Carter (V&J Holding Companies), Bea Dixon (Honey Pot), Janice
Bryant Howroyd (The ACT One Group), Garnetta Sanders (Neta Scientific), Janell
Stephens (Camille Rose Naturals), and J. C. Sykes (90 Degree Construction).

Boss Women uses poetic phrasing, making it easier for children to read and understand.
While reading each poetic profile, children will see themselves in these
women's successes and dream big dreams for the future. The book also is a motivational
tool for adults who are seeking encouragement on their entrepreneurial journeys."

"Boss Women:" Seven African Women Who Built Their Business From the Ground Up" by Gwen Richardson

My Opinion:

How enjoyable 'Boss Women' was that an enjoyable and informational read for all to read.
These African American women were...Janice Adams of JMA Solutions, Valerie Daniels-Carter of V & J Holdings, Bea Dixon of Honey Pot...I have tried these products and love them, Janice Bryant Howroyd of ActOne Group, Garnetta Sanders of Neta Scientific, Janelle Stephens of Camille Rose Naturals, and J C Sykes of 90 Degree Construction.

I love this short story of 'Two Janices, Jc, Garnetta, Bea, plus Valerie and Janell...with humble beginnings...how they've risen to new heights determined to excel.'

'Believe in yourself is what they all say. Your grit, guts, and courage will ultimately pave the way for the path you'll leave for others to follow. Your destiny will manifest a brighter tomorrow.'

The author did an excellent job of giving the reader information on these 'Boss Women who are Tomorrow's Boss Women of the future generation.' Would I recommend 'Boss Women?' YES, especially to the younger children.
