Girls Like Me is a short story that touches on gender identity, diversity, how teachers can create more inclusive classrooms, and empowers parents to be advocates for their children. Inspired by the author's own experiences, the main character likes basketball, superheroes, and baggy clothes, all things that are "not for girls."
The story begins with Alex being excited for her first day of school and the new experiences and people that it will bring, only to have a less than perfect day. Girls Like Me is an important book for a new generation of children and adults because it exemplifies the concepts of unconditional love, self-expression, advocating for your child, and highlights ways that teachers can make their classrooms more inclusive.
- Encourages self-love and acceptance
- Calls on teachers and students to co-create inclusive classrooms
- Empowers parents to be their child's advocate
- Creates opportunity for open discussion and learning with students

A native New Yorker, Ali Rose has always loved writing short stories. She has worked with children for as long as she can remember but truly discovered it to be her passion and life's calling seven years ago. A Penn State alumna, Rose worked part-time as a group leader with 3rd and 4th grade students at an after-school program. After seeing her impact with the brilliant scholars from BROOKLYN, Rose pursued a Master of Social Work degree (with a clinical focus on children and families) at CUNY's Hunter College. As the final project of her master program, Rose wrote a compelling children's story in which she based characters on her experiences as a child. It was important for her to create resources to aid parents and teachers in navigating conversations surrounding gender expression, especially with a younger demographic. Currently, Ali works with young adult scholars supporting them through their college journey focusing on academics, social-emotional growth, and mental health. Ali still lives in New York City.
