Rosalind Wiseman

Hi Everyone!

I’m hoping you’ve heard already, but I wanted to make the official announcement that I’m kicking off my 10-city book tour to celebrate the release of my first novel Boys, Girls & Other Hazardous Materials, and the fully-updated re-release of my book Queen Bees & Wannabes: Helping Your Daughter Survive Cliques, Gossip, Bullying & the New Realities of Girl World. But this isn’t just your average book tour! I wanted to create an event where moms and daughters could enjoy each other’s company while opening the door to a better understanding of each other’s worlds.

So, I’ve teamed up with our sponsors Dove Go Fresh Deodorant and Family Circle Magazine to put together the Girl World Tour, a series of fun-filled evenings of bonding for mothers and daughters (ages 8-14).

Here’s the plan: for $40* per pair, mothers and daughters will  receive a copy of Boys, Girls & Other Hazardous Materials and the latest edition of Queen Bees & Wannabes, Dove go fresh gift bags, and one-year subscription to Family Circle. They’ll also participate in a 90-minute interactive discussion about confidence, friendships, sweat-inducing moments, and mother-daughter challenges. We’ll wrap it up a Q&A and booksigning.

And please remember, though this is billed for mothers and daughters, any adult with a young girl (ages 8-14) in his or her life is welcome and will greatly benefit from this night of laughing, talking, and connecting.

For more information, please visit the Girl World Tour page or contact your local host for specific prices and details.

*The cost of the mother-daughter pair tickets may vary slightly in each city.

I look forward to seeing you on one of our stops! Check out the list of our stops to find the location and host nearest you:
