"I want girls, early on, to plant that seed to say 'you can do it, you can be whatever you want' when it comes to your profession and beyond," Davis said.
Davis said that the book is intended for audiences of all genders.
"I think that this is also important for boys who have sisters, who have mothers, and women in their lives to really understand that women should feel validated and empowered," Davis said.
"Girls of the World: Doing More Than Ever Before" will be hitting shelves and online retailers Tuesday.
