Never before have so many awesome women been celebrated in one book. The incredible women featured in this book fought for their beliefs, broke society's rules, and forever changed the world. Their words change us. Their power amazes us. Their talent awes us. And their stories inspire us all.
"The title and subtitle are dramatic, but this features well-known women, many of whom have appeared in stand-alone biographies. Still, having all these trailblazers, especially contemporary women, in one volume is a good idea. . . .this is useful as a starting point to further research." - Booklist

"Girls Rebel! is a compilation of important figures who have helped to change the way the world sees and treats women. After students have read through the book, ask them to use the arguments in the text as evidence to create a possible rubric that the author may have used to determine which women should be included in the book. Using that same rubric, have students identify who they think the author may think is the biggest “rebel,” using quotes from the text as support." - Booklist's Quick Tips, "Unpacking a Standard: With Series Nonfiction"

"Do you march to the beat of your own drum? Is what YOU think different from what those around you think? You are in good company! This book offers brief biographies of women who saw things in a unique way, from astronaut Sally Ride to Sister Mother Theresa." - New Moon girls, "Lacey Recommends"

"Brief vignettes with photographs alongside them describe the feats of many women through the ages who looked at the way the world operates and decided to take action. . . .A good place for young feminists to start reading about others who paved the way for them, the book carefully avoids featuring only women from the United States." - Reading Today Online

"An eclectic and ethnically diverse mix of history-changing women from the nineteenth century to today — opera singer Maria Callas to rap group Salt-N-Pepa; Iranian activist Shirin Ebadi to astronaut Sally Ride — fill the pages in this girl-empowering series. Using a jam-packed magazine format, the accessible texts are informative; sporadic first-person narratives lend a more intimate vibe." - Nonfiction Notes from the Horn Book
