Jake recounted how his daughter Alice created the Raise Your Hand book after noticing gender disparity in classroom handraising, leading to a Girl Scouts patch and a published children's book.
Alice noticed when she was eight that the girls weren't raising their hands and the boys were, so she wrote a book called Raise Your Hand.
Penguin Books saw the patch idea and asked her if she'd like to write a book called Raise Your Hand.
