CHAPTER 1
INSPIRING WOMEN
Mrs. Tov raised her eyebrows and peered over
her magazine. “Would you look at, that Dot?!
Kath Carter is the first female CEO of Steinem &
Morrison, a big fancy banking company.”
Dottie’s eyes widened. She studied the cover
of the magazine. Kath stood tall, proud and
confident.

“How do you become a CEO?” Dottie inquired.
“CEOs lead companies. You can be a CEO now.
You don’t have to wait until you are grown up!”
Just then, Lola walked into the room. “Did
somebody say CEO?” she asked with excitement
in her voice. “Little sis, you’re looking at one!”
Lola went on to explain her babysitting business.
“So basically,” she finished, “My job is to
coordinate schedules, collect money, and
advertise my services. It’s fun leading a
company!”
“So that’s how you afford to go to the movies
with your friends!” Dottie exclaimed. “I want to
be a CEO too!”
“You can! But first, you’ll need a business idea.
What problem do you want to solve?” Lola
inquired.
Dottie thought for a moment and looked around
the kitchen. Then, it clicked. “Breakfast is the
problem!” Dottie declared. “Sometimes people
don’t eat a healthy breakfast because they
are too busy. I can give them a healthy start by
selling them nutritious, home-baked muffins!”
2 7
“Awesome job identifying a problem, Dot. How
are you going to sell breakfast to people on their
way to work?” Lola followed up.
“Mom, can you take me to the train every
morning to sell muffins?” Mrs. Tov pondered this
for a moment. “If you want to wake up early
during your summer break to help start your
business, I am all for it!” she decided.
After her tenth customer Dottie turned around
and squealed. “Lola I am doing it! I have my own
business!” Dottie beamed with excitement.
“You had an idea and put it into action. What’s
more is you did this all on your own. You are one
cool 10-year-old, Dottie. Don’t ever change,”
Lola said. Dottie smiled, turned around and
started shouting for her next customers.

CHAPTER 2
DOWN TO BUSINESS
Dottie called all of the kids on her block together
and explained that she was going to sell muffins
at the train each morning. After hiring the most
reliable neighbor kids, she scheduled shifts,
working around camps and vacations.
That night Dottie baked 20 muffins, made signs
for her table and packed up for the morning.
She woke up early with business materials in tow,
headed to the train with Mrs. Tov and Lola.
4 5
“Get your breakfast! Don’t go to work hungry!”
Dottie shouted as people shuffled to the train.
“I’ll have one muffin please,” a tall man said as
he handed Dottie a dollar bill.
“Thank you sir,” she replied.
Lola helped Dottie sell a few more muffins, each
customer kinder then the next. “Thank you for all
of your help, Lola. You are helping me manage
all of these hungry people!” Dottie giggled.
