Swagger Wars II - Hardcover

by Joyce A. Lee (Author)

This book is designed for young adult readers who are looking for inspiration and empowerment. When confidence costs a young female her seat, she learns to build her own court. Maya Harper has always played hard. But in a world where swagger looks different on females, every win comes with a warning. When her fire on the court gets labeled "attitude," Maya finds herself benched-by her coach, her team, and her own doubt. Determined to prove she belongs, Maya pushes back against the double standards that silence females in every arena-from locker rooms to life. Along the way, she discovers that leadership isn't about being the loudest-it's about standing your ground when others tell you to shrink. Swagger Wars II: Her Turn is a powerful story of ambition, teamwork, and identity. It's a reminder to every young woman who's ever been told she's "too much" your voice, your strength, and your swagger are exactly enough.
