“She practised being small.
It never once fit.”



A school corridor, a crowd, and a girl deciding whether to make herself smaller. Shine, My Amazing Girl is a warm illustrated story about confidence at exactly the age it starts to wobble — the years when being noticed and being liked stop feeling like the same thing. Emma Meyer writes for girls who are quietly brilliant and not yet sure that is allowed.

Encouragement that never talks down.
Corridors, cliques and courage, all recognisable.
Shy, bright and drawn with real affection.
Simple language and a great deal of heart.
A crowded hallway.
A girl deciding how much to show.
A reason to stand up straight.
Shine, My Amazing Girl is an encouraging story about self-belief, kindness and taking up your own space — written for growing girls and the adults cheering them on.
