Our Story

Hello!

We are Priscilla and Shawn Tan, and we live in sunny Singapore! Our daughters, Andrea (aka Monmon) and Aurelia (aka Momo), are the love of our life. Like all parents, we believe our little ones should grow up knowing that they can be anything they want to be. There are so many awesome female role models and we want to give Andrea and Aurelia our own take on their inspiring stories - focusing on their struggles, how they overcame them and their achievements. Through the Awesome Women Series, we are on a mission to create a world where girls can be anything they want to be. We want to inspire today's girls to be tomorrow's role models!

Role Models

At Awesome Women Series, we believe that every young girl deserves to see a future filled with limitless possibilities. Role models play a crucial role in shaping these aspirations. When girls see women who have achieved greatness, they start to believe that they too can reach similar heights. Young girls need to see it to believe it!

Our stories pay tribute to remarkable female role models who embody the qualities we wish to instill in the next generation — grit, courage, resilience, optimism, perseverance, curiosity, strength, and conscientiousness. These traits are not just abstract concepts; they are the building blocks of success that we proudly associate with being a girl.

The Series

The Awesome Women Series offers a diverse collection of books that introduce young girls to inspiring female role models across various fields. Each box set is thoughtfully curated to highlight women who have made significant contributions in specific areas.

Our first box set celebrates female Leaders in government, politics, and international organizations who have driven positive change in society. Following that, we released a set dedicated to female Activists, showcasing women who have passionately fought for woman rights, social justice and equality.

As we continue to expand our series, future box sets will explore other exciting categories, including Entrepreneurs, Architects, Artists, STEMists, Sportswomen, and more. Each set is designed to provide young readers with a broad spectrum of role models to look up to, inspiring them to dream big and pursue their own paths.

Stay tuned for these upcoming releases!

Giving Back

We want to inculcate in Andrea and Aurelia the value of giving back to the community. We believe all of us need to work together to build a brighter future for our little girls. To play our part, we are donating a portion of our proceeds to charities that support girls’ education and women empowerment.

​One of the charities that we will be supporting is Room to Read, a global non-profit organization for improving literacy and gender equality in education in low-income communities around the world. Find out more about their programs here!

We are also supporting World Vision through the sale of our Awesome Women Card Game. For every purchase of our Awesome Women Card Game, we will donate a book to help promote literacy among the children in need in Mandaue City, Philippines. Find out more about the project here.
