Rebel Girls Read is a notable middle grade nonfiction book that identifies female leaders throughout history. Each colorful illustration is accompanied by a one-page biography that will introduce the young reader to leadership skill and female empowerment. Many cultures are represented and leaders include historical figures such as Cleopatra and Queen Elizabeth through modern-day influencers like Kamala Harris, Oprah Winfrey, and Aly Raisman. What I appreciate most is the end of the book that allows the reader space to draw their own self-portrait and reflect on what makes them a leader. It would be a nice addition to a home or school library as the people featured are diverse and the reading is quick.

What a wonderful collection of short stories about women who have impacted our society. Young girls alike need to hear these stories! Definitely a must-read.

Thank you to Rebel Girls and NetGalley for my electronic ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This is a new edition of 25 Rebel Girls. It has some repeats from the three prior versions but there are some deserving new names I this edition, like Kamala Harris and Stacey Abrams. Quick one page summaries about how these 25 women overcame odds to be leaders.

Review also posted on GoodReads. .

This book belongs on the shelves of young girls. It will show them all that women can do and hopefully encourage them to feel that they can do anything on which their sights are set. Each of these women is worth reading about. Some of those included are Aly Raisman, Cleopatra, Eufrosina Cruz, Jacinda Ardern, Kamala Harris, Melinda Gates, Michelle Obama, Ricoberta Menchu Tu and Stacey Abrams. Some of these women may already be known to you and a child that you know but others most likely may not be. All are inspirational. Each is featured in two pages, one of text and the other with a bright illustration.

The biographies are followed by some activities. A girl can write her own story, draw a portrait, think about the kind of leader they are and more.

This is a terrific entry in an excellent series. I highly recommend it.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title. All opinions are my own.

As a mother to middle-grade readers, I am always on the lookout for informative non-fiction books to add to our home library. Our kids have always loved illustrated educational books and even as they age they still gravitate towards them.

This book is gorgeously illustrated and just like the previous Rebel Girls books, provides information about strong women who have helped change the world for the better. I love that it includes Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris and Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg as well as some women who are less known but still just as impactful for change. The message throughout reminds readers to stand up for what is right and that small voices can work together to make big changes.

This is a book I know we will be adding to our bookshelves and I appreciate having the opportunity to read and review this galley.

I could not send it to my kindle therefore can not give feedback. I gave a neutral rating instead due to the fact that I did enjoy the previous rebel girl books. Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.

I need to start with thanking NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read an ARC of Rebel Girls Leads and provide my unbiased feedback on the edition.

First thing fans of the series should know about this book is that as the cover highlights, this is a shortened special edition book focused on female leaders. Of the 25 stories featured, 11 are brand new, but 14 have been pulled from previous Rebel Girls editions. So buyers of the book need to be aware they really need to look at this book as a celebration edition that is being released to honor the US having elected our first female Vice President, versus a big brand new book in the series.

That being said, the stories are wonderfully done and very age appropriate in the way they handle the discussion of these women’s life stories. The illustration are beautiful, and quotes positive and motivational. I really liked the book ended with a leadership quiz for the reader and action items/ideas/examples on how to be a leader.

Solid 4 stars only because it wasn’t completely new content.

Rebel Girls Lead is a collection of 25 one-page features on wonderful women across the globe and decades, with absolutely beautiful illustrations to match.
It's informative and entertaining; I believe a must-read for all young girls. But why stop at girls? Young boys would also benefit from learning about these important women. Even as an adult, I learned facts about women I am familiar with and learned about women whom I had never heard of before.
At the end of the book is a section for the reader to add remarkable facts about her self, and a place to draw a self portrait too!
Once available, I plan on buying a copy of this book for myself and will consider gifting it to some special young women in my life.

This is a very simple book designed for children, specifically young girls but boys can have female role models too! This is 25, one page stories about women leaders, a lot of these women are modern women but not all of them. This is very entry level. You're not going to get details on any of these women the idea is more to show that women are powerful and can be leaders. This can be used as an introduction and you girl child can then go on to read more about a specific woman who inspires her.

At the end of the book is a space for your child to write her own story and a quiz to see what type of leader she is. The artwork is beautiful.

I highly recommend all of the Rebel Girls series.

I have read all Rebel Girls book, so I didn't want to miss this one.
I think this is a inspirational, important book, that show children to they capable became anything, to fill any role.
I learned about some women whom were new to me, but many of them I knew before.
I really loved it!

This is a lovely selection of stories and gorgeous illustrations from the third editions of Bedtime Stories for Rebel Girls. It brings together the highlights of women who rebelled and achieved things which weren't thought possible for them. I would recommend this for any young children to show that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.

Another world class addition to the Rebel Girls books. Short stories about inspiring rebel girls who grew up to become rebel women, breaking glass ceilings.

I have been interested in reading some of these books for a while, I was so excited to get a copy of this from NetGalley! This was a brilliant collection of some of the most inspiring women, complete with beautiful illustrations and a variety of women, from Lady Gaga to Kamala Harris. I will 100% be buying a physical copy of these collections in the future as I would love to read them to my own children one day.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
This book was an amazingly written collection of stories about strong women that have made a difference in the world. This book is a stunning addition to the Rebel Girls books. I definitely recommend this book if you enjoy the other books in the Rebel Girls series.

The authors of this collection have taken some earlier stories from earlier Rebel Girls stories, and combined them to honor Kamala Harris being elected vice president of the United States. It is such a glass ceiling breaking moment that they felt that they had to come out with her story and put out stories of other leading rebel girls.

So many strong, amazing women from around the world are covered in this illustrated one page biographies that give you a taste of what makes them famous. With a mix of current and historic women any reader can get a good sense of what makes these women special.

I love that the book is so up to date that we have Stacey Abrams, the activist from Georgia in this group.

It might surprise you to find Lady Gaga in there, but she is featured for what she has done for the LGBTQ community.

Great book to introduce teens to some women who have made a difference both in the past and in the present and the future.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available or an honest review.

I keep giving this series a try. Over and over. Every time I'm hopeful. And every time I'm disappointed. I should know better by now. The authors are so biased in who they include in their "rebel girls." It's actually sad to me that they can't set aside their partisanship to include leaders across cultures and religions that they clearly don't agree with. I love that this includes women from so many differing nations, ages, backgrounds, and cultures. Except Christianity. Except conservative female leaders. Take a look at the 25 women. There is a clear bias here. And it makes me sad. I'd love to teach my daughter about these rebel girl leaders...but also ones who reflect our own belief system. I am not attempting to bias her at all. I love her seeing strong women from all walks of life and all cultures. But clearly, these aren't the books to show her that.

Also, I think the descriptions of each woman is far too brief. It doesn't give girls a clear picture of the hard work that goes in to leadership.

I enjoyed reading this book - and looking at all of the great artwork. I learned about many women leaders that were new to me - and I also learned interesting information about female leaders that I did know.

This is my second Rebel Girls book and I loved it just as much as the first one I read!

So many different women are represented in this book! From Lady Gaga to Kamala Harris to Oprah Winfrey, these women are all AMAZING. They believe in changing their country so that it will be a place for everyone. Although society is not yet where it should be, these women have made a start to it.

This book is gorgeous! It’s filled with inspirational woman, some of which I’m embarrassed to say I hadn’t heard of. As a teacher and a mother to a daughter- I can say this is such an important resource! The descriptions are brief but just enough to educate and peak your interest. The illustrations and quotes are beautiful. I love that this book includes a quiz for girls to figure out what kind of leader they are. Might be cool to someday add the social media handles so that young girls can “follow” these brilliant women online!

Rebel Girls Lead, perhaps, and Rebel Publishers recycle. This hit the ground running in order to celebrate Kamala Harris becoming the first female Veep in the US, and while it touches on President Biden's running-mate it generally sticks, by its own admission, to revisiting a few stories from the first few Rebel books. So, in very scattershot way, we jump from gymnast to Angela Merkel, from indigenous Mexican politicians hardly on the tips of people's tongues, to Malala Yousafzai. Every entrant gets the same one-page biography, a one-page portrait (perpetually created by a female artist), a pull-quote and a birth date/death date line, and that's it. Easy, but also welcome – these books are actually a lot quieter than you might think in how they just present success story after success story, and let them combine to show the fact that anything is possible.
