Wonderful stories! Wonderful stories and illustrations. We love the very diverse backgrounds and mix of both historical as well as very recent "rebel girls". Great work, all our kids, both boys and girls, enjoy it!

These books are amazing! These books are amazing! My daughter now pretends to be these amazing women instead of fictional characters. We love reading a few each night and if it's someone that is singing or plays sports we watch a video of that person doing their thing. She and I both look forward to it each night. I know it is paving the way for her to be a strong, independent and amazing woman.

Conflict in Construct Hello, my name is Alan. I purchased this book from the Mar Vista Time Travel. I think the premise of this movement is terrific. However, as I was reading this story to my daughter, I got to Artmesia Gentileschi and felt uncomfortable. At page 20 the passage reads, Agostino wanted his star pupil to also be his lover. "I promise I will marry you", he told her. Artmesia kept saying no. I did not quite understand it, so my partner and I spoke about it and looked a little more in depth into that background and it did not take long to come to the fact that Artmesia was Raped; and the situation was not coined the term only because she was underage, she was full fledge taken advantage of. Now, the story is obviously more intricate than that: Agostino promised to marry her and recanted his promise, women were not seen as people, rather descedants of men, and a caretaker is also to blame, apart from the father's blame. But the amount of detail needed in order to put its true story together, is important; unfortunately, it is not justifiable or fair for the writer to diminish what really happened, as a Woman, and for a Woman's sake (because these things really happen). Moreover, if that background is not neccessary, too dark, or even has too many complexities, it is probably best not mention it at all. Because it is a childrens book, I understand the necessity to keep it child-oriented, but I believe it is also best to be conscientious of every circumstance. All consecutively, I suggest it would be best not to veneer Artmesia's story -- And hopefully, not Anyone else's story in these books -- or just keep the dark backgrounds out, completely. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I appreciate the thought and reason for these books to exist. Keep getting better, thank you Sincerely Alan

Inspiring and empowering Whenever we hear a name on TV, see a face on a book, or hear of an incredible act of bravery, I am always SO proud when my girls can recognize that face, name, or story when it belongs to a Rebel Girl. They (we!) have learned so many amazing things about the women in these books. Hearing them make my girls raise their heads a little higher and pull back their shoulders a little further. They have become inspired and proud of these women that they’ve never met, and listen dreamily while planning out how THEY will one day have a page in these books. Thank you SO much for empowering my small rebel girls!

REBEL GIRLS ROCK!! Absolutely love these books!! Started purchasing them for my daughter when the first volume was released. She has never liked picking up a book twice until these were added to our home library. She an I both love when the novels were released and have our fingers crossed more will be coming out in the future!!
