From encouraging her to choose a helicopter, and not only a doll, as a toy if she so desires; having open conversations with her about clothes, makeup, and sexuality; debunking the myth that women are somehow biologically arranged to be in the kitchen making dinner, and that men can \"allow\" women to have full careers, \u003ci\u003eDear Ijeawele\u003c\/i\u003e goes right to the heart of sexual politics in the twenty-first century. It will start a new and urgently needed conversation about what it really means to be a woman today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47014847316208,"sku":"9780525434801","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780525434801_p0.jpg?v=1763710582","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780525434801","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
