This made her think about the amount of toxic messages that are transmitted in many of the classic tales, among others the limited role of women in society. Usually relegated to the background, the woman is often shown in a passive attitude, where qualities related to her physical appearance are given more importance than her personality or intelligence. This is how she devised \"Amira\", an artistic and educational project that seeks to contribute to a change in our society's mentality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIssues addressed in the story: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmotional intelligence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGender equality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWomen's empowerment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal values\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCourage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbility to make decisions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResilience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cristina Mitjavila, Linda Hadj\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8726443708\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798726443706\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/22\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 8.50w x 0.12d","brand":"Cristina Mitjavila","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43944617869567,"sku":"9798726443706","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_5cb7a5ed-4786-4064-8016-6adef8b1a6cd.jpg?v=1681504425","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/amira-cristina-mitjavila-9798726443706","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
