I love all things Rebel Girls and this book is no exception! This money guide fits in nicely with their other growing up powerful series of books. I love that this book breaks down information for younger girls, but also contains information still relevant for older teenagers. There are simple concepts and more complex matters like credit scores.

I love this type of reference books because girls can read sections of them slowly and continue to look back on the book over time. This is a great addition to a home or classroom library because it's not a one and done book. The graphics as always are cute and engaging and help focus your eye on different parts of the book. It's a really great book about money for young girls to start thinking about their finances!

I love how this book breaks down all the things needed to build financial literacy for kids at a young age. So many people talk about never being taught financial literacy in school and this book solves that problem.
I love how it includes things like checks, savings acct, and even money apps, in addition to cash. I also like how it teaches kids how to start their own business and have them thinking about earning money, not just receiving.
This would be such a good book for families to go through together with children before they start earning and spending money more frequent, or before they open their first saving acct.

A much-needed introduction to all things money - how to make it, save it, invest it, and protect it. It is very text-heavy but does have a few illustrations. There are also diagrams for things like writing and understanding checks.

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC. I will purchase for my library.

As an early adopter of "Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls" before my first daughter was born, I am so glad to see what a vast array of Rebel Girls books there are, now, teaching young girls to be strong and independent. Rebel Girls Money Matters actually taught me a few things about money! With information about saving, earning, creating your own business, investing, salaries, loans, etc. it is an amazing guide for young people to start learning important information about money that we unfortunately don't learn anywhere else in our society. This book is excellent for kiddos who have fairly good reading comprehension, Personally, I'd say ages 8-14 would be great ages to engage in this material.

Financial education is so important and yet it’s barely discussed, so this book is perfect to teach girls all about managing their money, giving them the basics and important lessons while still keeping it age appropriate. I would’ve greatly benefitted from this book when I was younger!

Thank you, Rebel Girls, for the advance reading copy. I feel this book has all the basics explained in a very beginner friendly manner and format when it comes to terms related with money.

Starting from what money is and to terms that sound familiar but difficult for any adult to explain to a kid, this manual/guidebook gives enough information with examples and simple exercises for the young reader.

Vibrant and bold and beautiful, I would totally recommend this book. Because these basic things are not taught in schools.
