What a wonderful gift to give to a child. Inspiring and detailed stories that make them perfect for newly confident readers who still like illustrations or for a longer story-time book to read with a child.
Good formatting, lovely illustrations and I love the colour scheme.
I would highly recommend as a gift.

My daughter really enjoyed these books. I loved the idea of having these stories highlighting some women from history that can highlight female achievement and successes.
These weren't women I particularly familiar with and so both my daughter and I got to learn something.
I think I would have preferred though women that I had some more familiarity with to be more entusiastic. However, my daughter said they were really interesting

My children (aged 8 and 5) and I really enjoyed these books. A great variety of background, lifestyle and accomplishments of the women covered. The stories are easy to read with beautiful illustrations to accompany each of the stories. Would definitely recommend.

This chapter book is excellent! This is exactly the kind of book that I love my children to read - so many fascinating things to learn about these inspiring women. My children were only vaguely familiar with Ada Lovelace but they even learned a lot about her!!

I've enjoyed the other books in this series, and was looking forward to reading this too! These books are great for girls who want to dig deeper, and use of fictionalisation helps to keep this fresh. and interesting. The breadth of women included spans different times in history, race, types of achievement and geography, and as such is inspiring in many different ways.

We love this series and reading them aloud to our daughters. My seven year old loves these chapter books that she can read independently or with a parent. Strong female role models are hard to find, but these never disappoint! We can't get enough!

I loved these books! They are the perfect length for older elementary school children to read and, as an adult, I still greatly enjoyed them. They are stylized as a narrative so it feels more like you are reading a story than a simple biography. My favorite one was the one about Madame CJ Walker as I had heard of her before but really knew nothing of her life. I recommend these for all girls and think every school should have a set.

Another amazing job by the Rebel Girls. Following the stories of 5 very unique women in history, this series is lovingly written and illustrated with projects to do at the end of each book.

Inspirational for all ages. Fantastic!

Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls The Chapter Book Collection is a collection of chapter books about five women who challenged themselves to do extraordinary things in their lives. each chapter book is about a different woman and follows her life and shares her impact on the world. This series is appropriate for 8-12 year olds. I read this with my eight year old daughter and we both loved it.
Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book for my honest review.

I received an eARC through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Enlightening and immersive, this collection of stories about pioneering women from the past is exactly what younger readers need. The easy to read style, beautiful illustrations and interesting activities make this book a must read for all. I thoroughly enjoyed every story and would recommend this to anyone who is looking for short historical stories that make a big impact.

Love these books!!! Was so happy to have the chance to read these with my students for our women studies class!

This is a great collection of stories about role models. All of the stories have great artwork and activities at the end. Perfect for ages 8-12. I highly recommend it.

a beautiful edition, whose illustrations complement the text, each story is interesting and is pleasant and informative to read.

It is brilliant that the 'Goodnight Stories' books, which have become so popular, have now expanded into a set of chapter books. Whilst the original title offered fantastic insights into the lives and stories of inspirational females, this set of books is great for more advanced readers who want to know more! The artwork is beautiful, in a contemporary style which really appeals. There are also great details added into these books: each chapter is followed by an 'afterword', which adds some context to each of the stories, and then an 'activities' section so that you can have a go at something practical linked to each of the stories.

Overall, this is a really inspiring set of books which would make for great reading for people of all ages, and would also be an awesome gift.

The rebel girls series was started in 2012 to inspire girls via storytelling.
This series has Ada Lovelace, Madam CJ walker, Junko Tabei, Alicia Alonso and Dr Wangari Mathai.
The first thing you notice about the books is the lovely artwork. It is unique to each story and wonderfully childlike.

Ada Lovelace was my favorite. However, I thought her childhood phase was not instructional.

Madam CJ walker's grit and determination shone through. Her contributions to Ymca
And National negro business league was vast.
There is an activity at the end to be an Entrepreneur.

Jungo Tabei was the first woman to reach the summit of Mount Everest and the first woman to ascend the Seven Summits, climbing the highest peak on every continent. She had to overcome male skepticism to be the first woman. She learnt that overcoming fear and learning balance was the way to climb mountains.
She later contributed a lot towards taking care of the mountains.

Nobel prize laureate Dr Mathai's story and struggles were truly eye opening and very encouraging for young girls.
Her Green belt movement and her understanding of nature
The interconnectedness of living things is a wonderful lesson to kids.

Alicia Alonso rise to the stage in Havana was uplifting as well.

They are extremely diverse and show different women with different backgrounds and therefore different paths for all little rebel girls. And all stories have some thinking time with activities.

This was a really good line from the books.
"Remember the
hummingbird. Even one small effort—an act of
courage—can inspire big change."

Loved them. Great books for middle schoolers and the adults! Lots of things to learn about these ladies! Thanks to Net Galley and the publisher for the opportunity to read these.

In the past few years, the Rebel Girls books have been calling to me. I never bought them, but I was always curious. When I saw this book was available on NetGalley, I immediately requested it. I didn't think twice. And oh my, the stories did not disappoint! So big thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for giving me access to a small collection of stories from the book I've been wanting to read for years!

The collection consisted out of five stories about important women: Ada Lovelace, Madam C.J. Walker, Dr. Wangari Maathai, Junko Tabei and Alicia Alonso. From dancing despite the obstacles a disability caused, to being the first woman to reach the top of the Mount Everest, all women in this collection did important things that may inspire young readers.

Despite being comprehensible for young readers, the book doesn't downplay other important events in their lives, such as losing a husband or being discriminated against. The stories show that despite the circumstances, the women managed. And that doesn't just inspire young readers, it inspired me, a 21-year-old, as well.

If only I had the Rebel Girls books when I was a little girl.
Ada, Alicia, Madam C. J., Junko, and Wangari. 5 wonderful, brilliant women.
The language the story was told was so easy to understand and actually really great.
I also loved the illustrations on the covers and in the books.

I loved this book! The story was sweet and empowering for little and big girls alike. The graphic design was really beautiful. I'll most definitely be purchasing hardcopies of these books!

Even though this collection had already been published, I applied for an arc copy because of the way I have seen my niece devour each and every edition of the Rebel Girls.
As she gets older, I have seen her grow to believe in herself more and more, and I like to think that I have helped just a little by being the aunt who always sends books featuring strong female characters.

Getting the opportunity to read in more depth about amazing women ( although the one page story in previous publications has its strong points) gives all those younglings who are ready for more growth a chance to do it in a familiar, and inspiring way.

For all of the Rebel Girls, and Rebel Boys that we want to inspire.
