Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls

Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls is a best selling anthology series that turns the lives of real women into short, fairy tale style bedtime stories. Created by journalists and entrepreneurs Elena Favilli and Francesca Cavallo, who were frustrated that so few children’s books centered girls with agency, the original volume became the most crowdfunded book in history and launched the Rebel Girls media company. Each story is paired with bold artwork by women artists from around the world, introducing kids to scientists, activists, athletes, and artists from many cultures. Families use these books as nightly read alouds to spark conversations about courage, creativity, and what is possible for all children.
