This is an excellent volume of inspiring entrepreneurs. Though it can be a quick read, it can also be taken slowly for deeper study. The extra materials available via the QR code, the additional activities, and business glossary are effective inclusions. Even though it is billed as a mini edition, it efficiently and effectively packs in a lot of information in a thoroughly engaging way.
Great book! I'd love to buy this for my 5 year old niece. I think that books like this provide a positive role model for girls; dream big. You can be or do anything you want to do with your life. A great variety and selection of women in this Rebel Girls addition and the artistic work representing the women is phenomenal.
The end of the book provides several pages for those interested in starting a business.

Having two daughters, I hope everyday they make a change. That things will be better for them and they won't have to fight as hard. These women have changed the way we look at technology or improving supply chains. They are showing the world women can do it all and better. I hope these stories encouraging our girls and girls all over.
The extra content such as a QR code, Write Your Story and activities in the back are great ways to get the reader more involved with the stories.
loved this one because it told a more unconventional story of women who do business! a lot of the time, i read books about athletes and politicians, but i loved reading about these amazing business women. hoping there will be more books like this one in the future,
Another great one from the Rebel Girls family. Beautiful, eye catching illustrations and a collection of amazing women to look up to! A collection of 25 women entrepreneurs, each entry tells the background of the woman, why she started the company she did and how it has effected the world. With a full page portrait accompanying each account, the book is super fun to read and look at! Will be purchasing for our library.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to read this book, in exchange for an honest review!
The Rebel Girls franchise hits the bulls eye yet again! I'm really happy that there's a book solely dedicated to helping kids learn about women in the entrepreneurial world, especially given how there's still sexism in pretty much every industry out there. I love how this book shows the importance of women in general, and has the lesson for younger girls that they can literally be anything they want to be, if they put their minds into it. It's very inspirational, and I'm grateful that I can show books like this to my younger cousins and my friends' kids, to empower them from such a young age.
I love how I, a twenty-five-year-old woman, was completely enamored by this book, so I can only imagine how good of an impact this could be for learning, knowledge-hungry kids. I definitely recommend this to EVERYONE; every gender, every age, every person could benefit from learning about the ways different women absolutely thrived in their respective businesses, and how they helped shape the world into what it is now. I also love how there are QR codes there for additional information! The drawings are also still adorable and beautiful, as always!
This book is great to show the power of women to young/ middle grade students. The stories are concise and high interest and the illustrations are beautiful
Thank you so much for allowing me to read and review this book.
I have been following the rebel girls book series for a long time and I read 70% of the books that been published and I did actually really enjoy this one but unfortunately it’s not on Goodreads so I couldn’t put my review up there. This was cute adorable and I absolutely love it I would recommend this for bedtime stories or for young girls to inspire them
This is the next book in the great Rebel Girls series. I love these books so much, and this one did not disappoint! This one is centered on entrepreneurs from all over the world in a wide variety of fields. So many amazing girls and women I had never heard. As always, the stories are accompanied by beautiful illustrations.
