An inspiring and touching read, this book combines the amazing efforts of women around the world who have fought for those that cannot fight for themselves. It is an emotional read that makes you wonder why more people do not show the same compassion and kindness towards the environment and animals that these women do. The amazing thing is reading about how one woman will see a problem and then seek out a solution, which seems to not only be able to solve the problem, but inspire others to follow along in their footsteps.

Rebel Girls Animal Allies

“Rebel Girls Animal Allies: 25 Tales of Women Working With Wildlife” is another installment of the rebel girls book series, which strives to educate children about important women through history. I was very excited to read this, as I usually am when I pick up another Rebel Girls book.

As always, the art was unique and diverse, since multiple artists came together to create it. I always enjoy all the different styles I get to see. One thing I really loved was the younger girls added into the series, girls the same age as the target audience who made history in the eyes of wildlife preservation and protection. It’s a great idea to showcase that even young girls can make such a big impact.

I also enjoyed the end of the book where there are resources encouraging the reader to become animal allies as well, with many different ideas and crafts to choose from. An amazing book as always, 5/5 stars

What an amazing way to highlight women in science! I loved this so much, especially with the QR codes for more info!

I love the Rebel Girls series, and this one did not disappoint. I loved the broad range of jobs these women hold - not just working directly with animals as one would expect but also as artists and architects and more! I also appreciated the broad range of ages - it shows young readers that you're never too young or inexperienced to make a difference!

I really enjoyed this book, the illustrations, and the stories of women working with wildlife. The back of the book also provides ideas for how to make a difference for young readers.

Wow! I went into this never reading a Rebel Girl book before and was completely blown away by how amazing it was. This one was on Animal Allies and talked about 25 woman who make a difference working with animals world wide. The book was easy to read with lots of amazing infortnauon. Also had scan codes if you wanted to learn more about one of the Allies. I definitely plan to purchase this book and other Rebel Girl books for my young daughter.

A perfect book to share with all ages. Two-page spreads of each activist (sometimes a duo of friends/collaborators) with text on the left and a colorful art portrait with related animals on the right-facing page make this, like the rest of the extensive series, a shareable book for classroom read aloud or bedtime stories. The multicultural women are from around the globe and many are young activists that readers have likely never heard of. Jane Goodall is included, but the rest of the women are less famous. Occasional Qr codes are included to extend the reading experience. Pages at the end include a spread to write your own activist story and portrait.

Share widely with confidence!

Rebel Girls Animal Allies" is an exceptional book that both educates and inspires. The book features stories of 50 amazing animal activists, each with their own unique journey and message of hope. From Jane Goodall to Temple Grandin, these stories showcase the incredible impact that individuals can have on the world when they stand up for what they believe in.

I found "Rebel Girls Animal Allies" to be an inspiring read that left me feeling empowered and motivated. This book is a must-read for anyone who cares about animals and wants to make a positive impact on the world. Overall, I would highly recommend "Rebel Girls Animal Allies" to readers of all ages.

Another excellent installment of Rebel Girls! This one is full of various women who have played critical roles in conservation and our knowledge of the animal kingdom. My kindergartner loved these stories and has picked some people to follow up on to learn more about.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the eARC in exchange for my honest review!

I'm a huge fan of the Rebel Girls series, and this is no exception to that rule. This one if particular is perfect for young readers who love animals and especially if they might be interested in a career helping animals, particularly wildlife.

The book has the standard Rebel Girls layout. Bright, colorful pages with illustrations by different artists, all of whom get credits on the photo and are listed with age and country in the back of the book. The stories of the women shared are relatively short and easy to read. They read like short stories to give They highlight birthdates and locations at the bottom of the bio page, and the illustrations include a quote from the profiled person.

The book highlights well-known individuals like Jane Goodall and Bindi Irwin as well as women that people may be less likely to know from Amanda Vincent and Heather Koldewey, marine biologists specializing in saving seahorses, to Christina Gorsuch, zoo curator who helped Fiona the preborn hippo survive.

The people highlighted also cover a range of ages, showing that people can find ways to help where they are passionate about no matter how old or young they are when they start. The book also has suggestions on how readers can become animal allies themselves.

This is another wonderful addition to the Rebel Girls series that animal lovers of all ages shouldn't miss.

Another great book from the Rebel Girls series, this time about women who work with and preserve animals of all kinds and all over the world. I liked that the women themselves came from several backgrounds, were famous or not so much, younger ones were also included, and that they had different jobs and techniques. The book also includes an attachment for children how to be an animal ally. I was so fascinated by the book, I thought I had missed something in life. I only wondered why some women, also young ones and from countries that have a register of births, had a line "birth date unknown". Otherwise another great one in the series.
Thanks to Rebel Girls and Netgalley for an ARC ebook in exchange for an honest review.

Rebel Girls Animal Allies is a compilation of 25 stories of women working with wildlife. This is my absolute favorite type of story to read my children because it's enjoyable for all of us. I had heard of a few of the well-known women such as Bindi Irwin, Jane Goodall, Kristen Bell, etc but a lot of the women were unknown to me so I was so happy to learn about them.

Highly recommend for children (or adults) of any age. We loved learning about all the fascinating women and animals. As a bonus, there's a "be an animal ally" section in the back with a sketch activity.

This would make a perfect gift and would be great for young readers. Thank you to NetGalley and Rebel Girls for allowing me access to an eARC in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

This entry in the Rebel Girls Minis series introduces 26 diverse women from around the world who advocate for animals and the environment. One profile features two marine biologists, so there are 25 profiles. Each profile features an interesting one-page description of the woman’s work and an illustrated portrait. Each portrait was illustrated by a different female artist, so the styles varied, and I liked some of the images more than others.

This is an inspiring book for children. Even as an adult, I enjoyed reading about these women and am curious to learn more about some of their accomplishments.

Thanks to Rebel Girls for providing me with an ARC through NetGalley that I volunteered to review.

You really know what you're getting with the Rebel Girls-books by now, and this one didn't disappoint. I would have loved reading this one when I was an animal-obsessed kid - just as I did now as an animal-obsessed adult, albeit the kind who has decided not to work with them. Maybe if I'd had this book as a kid and saw all the many different ways one can work with animals, I would've.

The biographies are, as usual, short, sweet and to the point, and the artworks accompanying each biography are all done by different artists! Loved it.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Rebel Girls Animal Allies is a book in the Rebel Girls series about Women and teenagers caring for animals.

In this book, we meet several inspiring girls who fight for our two-legged and four-legged friends. We read about girls who study primates, ocean animals, alligators, and bats. Little readers will learn about new professions in animal conservation, such as marine biologists, ichthyologists, primatologists, and zoo curators. The illustrations are varied and colorful. Most girls are from developed countries, and seeing some girls from developing nations is good.

It is time for young girls to choose off-beaten paths to save our planet, and Animal Allies is the perfect book for inspiration.

Another fabulous addition to the Rebel Girls series. Informative with exquisite illustrations, this is sure to inspire the next generation of conservationists, marine biologists, zoologists or just those who want to make a small difference in protecting nature. Within the pages, readers discover the inspiring stories behind 25 animal advocates including Jane Goodall (primatologist).
This is a perfect addition to the KS2 shelves and a perfect addition to the Primary Science Curriculum.
Huge thank you to NetGalley and the team at Rebel Girls Inc for this e-Arc to read and review.

Fascinating group of women animal activists in some form or another. I hadn't heard of a lot of them!

We have many of the Rebel Girls series, but this was the first time we've seen this title. My 7 year old daughter is a vet / park ranger in training, so being able to show her these great examples of women following their dreams was wonderful! We read tons of books about different conservationists, zoologists, and biologists, so I was nicely surprised to see that most of the women highlighted in this book were new to us. (Don't get me wrong, Jane Goodall is the GOAT, but been there, done that.) Also, the variety of ages of the women makes a difference to learn about. Some have spent their whole life working for animals, but it's nice to see younger / more recent activists highlighted as well.
The writing level is in line with other Rebel Girls books, meaning a bit too high for my 1st grader to read on her own, but she likes looking at the beautiful illustrations while I read to her. The QR codes for more information was a nice add-on, too.
NetGalley provided the digital copy for review, but I'll ask my local library to purchase a copy of this book and probably buy my own copy for our home.

Rebel Girls books will always be my favorite and my children’s- yes even my son. Animal Allies was the perfect book to accompany our homeschool about zoology and geography this year. We learned about women we never heard of before and famous people we’ve heard of but were not aware they were animal Allies.

Following the same format of other Rebel Girl books, this is an fun and informative look at animal allies with a page of easy to read information and a colourful picture page.
women from different times, current and around the world. Lovely to see some of the lesser known ones too.
