The world is beautiful, the world is good
Paris, 1973: A girl sets out to discover the world. As the first woman to do so, Anne-France Dautheville circumnavigates the globe on her motorcycle, traveling through places including Afghanistan, India, and Canada.
This magical children’s book depicts her journey with spectacular illustrations by Julie Morstad and is told by award-winning author Amy Novesky. The story explains to the world and our children that girls can do anything they set their minds to.
The book is based on the true story of Anne-France Dautheville, who traveled the world alone on her motorcycle between 1973 and 1981, and it awakens a sense of adventure, inspires self-confidence, and sparks curiosity. An inspiring story about a strong woman and a great role model!
"This book is a love letter to life and an inspiration for all little girls (and boys!). The adventures of Anne-France show us: 'You can do anything your heart desires, if you only have the courage to follow it.'" Katharina Ostendorf, Ulm
"Anne-France Dautheville is a true pioneer, an icon for equality and feminism. My daughter’s eyes went wide when we read the book together—I could really feel her world expanding with every page. A great story, thank you!" Jasmin Meyer-Riedl, Cologne-Ehrenfeld
