I read these to my nieces and my nephew before bed when they sleep over 😊

Sweettartlaura I read the first one to my baby niece over a year or so ♥️. It was amazing how … basic & mundane some of these were. Like, “This woman was the first to go to college…” or “… first to ride a motorbike…”. She was like, “SHE was the first?!?! In WHAT year?!?!” Yep, baby girl - exactly 😞 1mo

I stop by the thrift store every week, and take a swing through the book section for kids books for our Little Free Library (we‘re right near the elementary school, so it gets a lot of kid business.) I found a like-new copy of Rebel Girls for less than a dollar, and it‘ll go in the LFL tomorrow morning before school.
Happy #InternationalWomensDay !l

LeahBergen Are You My Mother is such a good one. I read it over and over to my nephew. ❤️❤️ 2y
Aimeesue @LeahBergen Yes! My kids loved it. Every time we see a backhoe, one of us must inform the others that there‘s a Snort over there. 😂 2y
LeahBergen Aww! 😆 2y
mandarchy I get great emails from Rebel Girls. I hate most of the emails I get at work - a lot of sales. But They include activity pages the kids love, like crosswords, word searches, and themed book lists. 2y

I find this series to be more of a great idea than a great compilation. The idea behind these are wonderful but they are not very well thought out. This is not stories for bedtime. This would spark way to many questions and much conversation for young children to grasp before bed. Then again, I don't think that all of these women necessarily changed the world either.

This wasn't for me. I love storys of women who are worth looking up to but this had some who definitely weren't worth their pages. I definitely would not put this on my children's shelves.

I read the tagged book and I really enjoyed the story of Jacquotte Delahaye (Back From the Dead Red), and I thought her story was really cool and wondered if there was a historical fiction novel about her. Google didn‘t have any answers, but I would love to know if there were any recommendations!

The book features the real-life stories of 100 inspiring women and accompanied by a full-page illustration for each story, created by a female illustrator. There‘s a Rebel Girls 2 and I‘ll be interested to know who other #extraordinary women are being featured.

My second grader was just diagnosed as Dyslexic (it turns out this explains 1/2 of my family‘s reading struggles). My daughter is smart, funny, and her spatial reasoning and artistic talents are amazing. For our last round of testing (vision) we‘ve been listening to this collection of stories on the drive.

This collection is empowering and the narration is great. I can‘t wait to listen to book 2!

#crossculturalstories

Riveted_Reader_Melissa It‘s a scary diagnosis, but there is so much more they can do now, and it‘s so much better understood too. Good luck. 6y
BookInMyHands @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Thank you! We are in a good place- I have a friend who is a Dyslexia specialist and we are catching it before her teachers have even seen any problems. And it turns out literally every woman in my mom‘s side of the family is Dyslexic in varying degrees, so my daughter has lots of support ❤️. It‘s been a fascinating journey! 6y
Dragon Glad to hear you have a diagnosis and can start moving forward with so much family support! 🤗👍🐉 6y

I 💜 that there are books like this for my daughter! (Her LEGO set features 2 women in the book!)

Filled with daring women (not all of whom I like or agreed with, but they are/were still extraordinary and powerful in their own right...ahem Margaret Thatcher), I like the diversity, both of profession and culture. There are pirates, dancers, athletes, scientists, politicians, activists, and more!

It feels like it has been months since it has been cool enough for me to read outside! It‘s still humid, but at least the temp is below 80F!

I only have enough time for brief dips, so I‘m reading one of Maya‘s books that is easy to pick up and put down, one that we‘ve read parts of together in the past. I never grow tired of this amazing book chock full of amazing women!
