There is a whole campaign for Let Toys Be Toys, and an associated one for Let Books Be Books, where parents and children are trying to stop manufacturers, publishers and shops from branding toys and books as either "for girls" or "for boys".

 

Scholastic is one of the major suppliers of children's books to schools in the UK, and it's great to see a young girl directly trying to change something she sees as not right.
