Another great book in this series! The women are a well-chosen mix who have different skills and talents. It’s so inspiring to read about their lives! And the art throughout is gorgeous.
All the hope and vibrancy of youth is bursting out of this 5th vol of Rebel Girls stories. 100 Inspiring Young Changemakers is a compilation of up and coming young women and non binary persons who are currently making a mark on the world and changing lives and opinions for the better. They are from wildly different backgrounds around the world, and all bursting with energy, enthusiasm and a thirst for positive change. These young people are wonderful role models in fields ad wildly flung as poetry, art, sport science and they are only at the start of their wonderful journeys. How amazing for our young women to be able to read about these up and coming stars. What better role models than those close in age that our young people can emulate and even join in their journeys. As always the wonderful stores are accompanied by bright and beautiful illustrations by over 80 talented women and non-binary artists and qr codes are scattered throughout to access additional information. Why not download the app and listen along too! A firm favourite features a the end- the space for your own fantastic story. So excited for young people to get their hands on this wonderful volume this September! The children really are our future and here we see them blossom, flourish, grow, take charge and make their mark on the world. Astounding. Fascinating. Wonderful. #rebelgirls100inspiringyoungchangemakers #rebelgirls #netgalley
I enjoyed reading this book! I love books that feature different members from different identity communities and falling into stereotypes. This is a book that I would definitely add to my classroom library and encourage my students to read.
This version of Rebel Girls highlights some well known changemakers and shines a light on some not so well known changemakers. It was really nice to read about these girls and young women who make a difference in society and inspire many others to follow their dreams.
The illustrations were the highlight of this one for me - stunning and vibrant. I also loved the quotes and the quick facts about age and location etc. And I personally thought there was a good mix of cultures and nationalities.
This is a good book for the reader to open a page at random and see who they land on.
I do wish that the layout had been changed up a bit though, instead of having - text left, illustration right - on every single page.
An inspiring book about 100 young changemakers!
Good night stories for rebel girls: 100 inspiring young changemakers is about celebrating young women from activists to singers to scientist and more! From different countries, age groups, and small facts about them all.
I really enjoyed reading this, and it was so encouraging to read. The artwork was so amazing. It was also an easy read book, and perfect to just read a page a day, or flip to someone you want to get to know more. I didn’t know some of the women in this book, so it was interesting to learn more about them. I really recommend this book!
Happy reading!♥️
In this book we meet more young women who had their vision and worked to make it come true.
computer scientist, poet, activists, athletic performer, Olympic medalist, product designer, harpist, conservationist Bindi Irwin Powell, inventors, mathematician, playwrights, musicians, engineers,
disability rights advocate/CEO, bladesmith, wildlife photographer, entrepreneurs, astronomer,
paralympic medalists, fashion designer, writers (novelist, technical writer), and many more are named and illustrated, serving as role models to the future.
Excellent as always and perfect for giving and/or donating.
The pages are filled with colorful illustrations which add even more meaning to this book.
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Rebel Girls via NetGalley. Thank you!
I have read several of the Rebel Girls series now, and encourage you to as well. They are so informational and inclusive. I especially enjoy ones like this one, that include a lot of new generation people that I've never heard of. They mix in more famous people as well, but I like that the focus is not always on already household names. These are perfect for home libraries and school libraries a like.
Thank you to netgalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review!
Rebel Girls has knocked it out of the park, again! This book has 100 Young Ladies that are just incredibly inspiring. My kids enjoyed hearing stories about the young girls/women in the book. We listened to their music, found their art, or watched them on YouTube, when applicable. The illustrations in the book are fabulous!
Thank you NetGalley and Rebel Girls for the opportunity to review this book.
I have loved all the Rebel Girls books so far, mostly because it introduces me to women I have never heard of. Most of the stories feature women front long ago, as well as the present day. In this volume, however, we onlyk have present day. And although the girls and women are largely from the US, there are other countries represented here as well.
We have young women like Billie Eilish and Greta Thunberg, and then we have Bonnie Chiu, who I have never heard of, but who apparently is big in social media or Cassidy Crowley who invented a spoon for babies, as part of a science fair project.
As always these stories are inspiring, and enlightening as to what young women can accomplish in this world.
<em> Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.</em>
What a great and inspirational book for young women. I love the different stories and illustrations. I found this book to be very inspiring and uplifting. It's fun to read about girls all over the world and things they have accomplished in so many different fields.
The connection to the reader is great with qr codes so the reader can learn more plus a place to write your own story and guides in the back of the book.
This book would be a great gift for any young woman. I would love to share it with my own children.
A great collection of short stories or profiles of women and girls who weren’t afraid to do it their way. And the impact they’ve had on the world. Fantastic to be able to dip in and out of them for bedtime stories etc, A while range of cultures/sexualities etc explored meaning lots of discussion points to be had.
couldn't open the file so i wasn't able to read it lol. but i did read one book from this series so i will give a predicted rating (cause i have to)
I received an advance reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.
Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls: 100 Inspiring Young Changemakers is another wonderful addition to the Rebel Girls series!I loved the diversity and inclusion of the young girls in this book. Some I had heard of and knew and many I didn't- but that's what I love so much about these books - they introduce you to and make you aware of many different females who are making a difference, a change and who are so interesting and inspirational to boot! The illustrations are so amazing and very lifelike to the person they are of. This is such an inspiring series for all females! In this edition we discover female scientists, artists and inventors to name but a few and I loved how disabled, Indigenous and people of colour were not only included but celebrated throughout this book!
You're giving me Megan Jane Crabbe, Zandaya, and Taylor Swift in one book alongside some other truly remarkable individuals (including Millie Bobbie Brown and lady astronauts!!!) And you think it's not gonna get a full 5*?
Thanks to NetGalley for the eBook in exchange for my honest review, and my honest opinion is these books are never not fun and interesting and important
These Rebel Girls books are GOLDEN.
They are what the world needs- specifically young girls. But also it’s so important for young men to also gain appreciation for the female gender (in a very male driven world.)
I love these short stories. If a certain figure speaks to a reader they can then find ways to read or learn more about them. The length of these stories are such a perfect introduction. The illustrations are gorgeous!!! I learned so much while reading about these 100 women. I can’t wait to share each one with my daughter and my Girl Scouts!
I love that some pages have QR codes for more! I also love the fill in pages in the back. I can not say enough good things about all of the Rebel Girls books!
Thank you to NetGalley and Rebel Girls for providing me with the e-ARC!
Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls: 100 Inspiring Young Changemakers includes 100 bed time stories about young women who did something inspiring. Unlike the other Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls, this collection of stories does not include historical figures. It was great to read about all these young inventors, artists, scientists and many other women. The stories include Black, Indigenous and other women of colour as well as women with disabilities.
If you are looking for good night stories that will inspire your child and show them that they can achieve their dreams even when they are young, Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls: 100 Inspiring Young Changemakers is the book for you.
another one in this incredible series! yet again, the author delivers an inspiring book recounting the stories of one-hundred passionate, determined, diverse women who changed our world. i would buy this for my baby cousins or an elementary school classroom. so happy gen alpha (sidenote, but gen alpha is a stupid name, imo) is growing up with these books!
Omg loved loved loved this…. Am old but this was education for me learned so much about the next generation of trail blazing amazing women. Full of diversity with icons from places you wouldn’t think of ,bladesmith anyone , loved how there was lots of disabled rebel girls represented that isn’t something you always see.
There is a great mix of icons from all walks of life, that are all truly inspiring. Some I had heard of and many I have not which was great, it made me research a bit more on these icons, am sure being 37 might have been the reason I had not heard of many of them so just shows these types are books are so important for the target readership but also their caregivers, I would hope this will encourage discussion and debate with both young and old learning. I would say children over the age of 9 would be able to read this themselves but younger children who love it equally with being read to them.
Like the first rebel girls book this is a book full of fabulous art work that is bright and fun, mini autobiographies, full of facts and inspiration.
I think the layout means you can go and in pick your favourites to read quickly again and again or read all 100 in order , you could easily go to your favourite page to share it with everyone, I can see it being a great edition to sleepovers, guide/scout campfire reading and just whenever you need to a bit of girl power . I hope when I buy this book like I did the first rebel girl book for my nieces they treasure it the same way and learn just how amazing girls can be
A must fir anyone who wants to teach their children who runs the world…. GIRLS
I have historically always really liked this series and they have been perfect to get me out of reading slumps. I recently gotten into a massive one and thought this was going to be the perfect read. It wasn't it. I don't know if my experience of this book was because of the slump or just because something is different about this book compared to the others in the series but it just didn't work for me. I feel like the storytelling of it just wasn't up to par and didn't sweep me away like it always does. I do still think these books are great though. There's a wide diversity of women talked about. There is always a whole lot to learn about and most importantly the art is absolutely stunning.
