This was a cute book for young children to get an introduction to famous women role models. I would recommend it for elementary libraries and classrooms.

This is a great collection to inspire young girls! Each book contains 10 influential women within a certain topic such as science, dance, sports, animals lovers, movies, etc.

The format is great as well to connect to young readers. Each influential woman has a nice colorful picture of her and a few pages of information about her. Some of the women are very well known and some aren't as much. I found myself and my daughter learning a lot that we didn't know already. Definite empowerment for girls!

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me a copy of this ARC for my honest review.

Any titles published by the Rebel Girls always catch my eye as I’m privileged to be rearing a strong, spirited little leader who will seek to pioneer her own path. The Rebel Girls Little Library is a wonderful addition to our Rebel Girls collection, with new bios and profiles of remarkable women, some who are readily recognizable and others who were definitely new to us. Many thanks to the authors, publisher, and NetGalley for the opportunity to review this ARC!

I enjoy all the rebel girls books and recommend them for young girls. Very inspiring as always.
I prefer the books where we get to know the story of a specific famous woman as we are able to dive deeper into her story but this is a great overview. This would make an excellent gift.

As an educator I am alway looking for engaging nonfiction texts for my students. This was an amazing set of short easy to read collections about amazing women in history. I could see myself using these books for writing assignments especially during Women’s history month.

I'm really disappointed in this set. I have loved the Rebel Girls books in the past, and truly thought that this book was a guarantee. They aren't really storybooks, but they are fun, bite-size little bits of history, facts, and inspiration. I personally was also really not a fan of the half page QR codes to read more in every chapter.. I wanted to read the book, not worry about looking up supplemental information, surely if it is important enough, it could be worked into the story. Make the chapters longer or have fewer people in each book.

I purchased these books as a Christmas present for my granddaughters. They are too young for them, but their parents read them to them. They are ages 4.5 (very bright) and 9. I believe it’s important to expose them to important women. These books are educational, empowering and encouraging for you girls.

Thank you #NetGalley, #RebelGirls and #RebelGirlsLittleLibrary100TalesofDreamersandDoers for the arc for my honest review.

I haven't been on #NetGalley in a while, and when I went, I stumbled upon the The Rebel Girls Little Library.

["Featuring 10 empowering hardcover easy readers, this treasury shares 100 tales about extraordinary women and girls from all around the world.

To create the Little Library, Rebel Girls has chosen 100 stories from our first twelve story collections and retold them as enchanting stories for a younger audience."]

This was a nice, relaxing, but highly informative (and inspirational) read. I heard about a lot of these women and their achievements, but it was nice to get a refresher as well as learn about all of the other highly accomplished rebel ladies.

I needed inspiration in my life right now. It was both inspiring and just...disheartening. I'm on the brink of change, and while I don't want to rush time, I want to get on with my future. I want to start the change now and feel something.

I would recommend this book to anyone, of any age, at any stage in their lives.

These little books are great for homeschooling!! I especially like the Women who Explore and Women who Invent books. They had such great info and were the perfect length that my kids didn't get overwhelmed. If you want to add a few stories of strong women to your homeschool or storytime in general I highly suggest this book. I will be getting more for sure. My daughter like the books Women who Love Animals and Women who Dance the most.

Thank you to the author and NetGalley for the ARCs of these books

My girls and I were delighted to receive an ARC of Rebel Girls Little library. We are huge fans of the Rebel Girls books and these did not disappoint. My 7 year old loves art so greatly enjoyed the 10 women who create art book . Personally I loved the 10 women who helped others and found that I learned lots through reading the stories too. I think we will need to buy the hardcopy. Highly recommended.

The Rebel Girls Little Library is a fantastic and engaging way to get young readers to learn information about key female figures of the world. This book set will teach your child biographies of important woman in our world.. They are easy enough to understand, but not simple enough to be boring.

We are a homeschooling family, so we use this to supplement our History studies. Prompting a child's curiosity authentically isn't always easily done. After reading these books my kids chose to independently learn about many of the figures in this book. It made my children curious to learn more which is one reason why I would recommend these books to anyone with younger children.

I would recommend this book set for children aged 4-10. I know it says Rebel Girls in the title, but it is great for boys as well. They need to learn stories of strong women just as much as girls do.

La raccolta è composta da dieci libri più piccini, uno per categoria (artiste, musiciste, attiviste, scienziate, ecc), e ognuno contenente dieci biografie, scritte in maniera comprensibile a tutte le età.
Molto carino e, in effetti, molto attuale la presenza di qr codes che portano i lettori a scoprire altre informazioni online.

Grazie NetGalley per l'incredibile opportunità.
