A chronology of books from childhood to the present.
I’ve been a bookworm since I can remember. But whether I was naturally attracted to novels that reflected my latent feminism, or the books I happened to read helped shape the values I have today, here is a chronology of the books—from Eloise to Jane Eyre—that have inspired my strong sense of girl power.
Eloise is a little girl living the dream at The Plaza Hotel in New York City with her nanny, her dog Weenie and her turtle Skipperdee. She is not yet pretty but she is already a Person and she is interested in people when they are not boring. For a precocious girl like myself, little Eloise’s glamorous life, her “personhood” and her opinions were all the validation I needed to march to my own drummer, just like the main character herself.

Students of today are aware that working hard and working smart are two different things. If a young person focuses on their studies and other pursuits, they can achieve success. If you are naturally good at social science, Microeconomics, and other activities, you may not have enough time to complete your projects and homework. In such a situation, "Pay someone to do my economics assignment" can be important. While working and attending school, it can be challenging to maintain a routine of completing projects and assignments. If you do not vary your work, your grades may suffer. If you want to complete both your online course and your work, it is time to hire someone to do your homework.
