Author Miriam Peskowitz’s best-known work is the internationally-bestselling phenomenon The Daring Book for Girls, which spent fourteen weeks on the New York Times Bestsellers List, and has been translated into eleven languages, including Dutch, Spanish, French, Turkish and Chinese, with special English-language editions for Australia and the UK. Daring was included in the 2008 Oscar’s gift basket, a little known but important fact. Miriam is most proud, though, that the book has inspired girls and their families the world over. The Daring series continues with The Double-Daring Book for Girls. Miriam is also the author of The Truth Behind the Mommy Wars, and several academic books besides.
