Girl Wear Combat Boots Too', was written to inspire little girls and little boys to go after their dreams even when there may be people around them that do not believe. Girls Wear Combat Boots Too, is about 8 year old Skylar G. The 'G' stands for Grace. Skylar G. developed a fear of heights at age six after being pushed off the top of a playground slide by the classroom bully. What's ironic about this story is that Skylar G. has acrophobia, but yet she still wants to live out her five year old dream to jump out of a moving aircraft and fly in the sky like a bird, just like her mom did, while serving in the Army, but first she must learn to overcome her fear while dealing with unforeseen circumstances and the classroom bully determined to stop her.
