Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to read this book, in exchange for an honest review!

This book was a quick, knowledgable and inspirational read. I'm so happy that young girls have access to books like this, and I especially love the coverage of climate change and how it gives them the inspiration to become more environmentally friendly knowing what other girls have achieved.

In true Rebel Girls fashion, this book takes a look at important women who dared to make a difference with the climate.  The book itself is absolutely beautiful.  With a full page drawing of each of the women and the facing page bearing information about said woman.  I loved to see that with some of the women, they added a QR code so girls could scan and read more about the hero.  Towards the end of the book, there is a part for the reader to write their own story and ways to "celebrate nature" aka become better keepers of the climate.
These books are such a powerful way to tell young girls, and boys too, that women make a difference in the world.  They are all perfect gifts for the budding reader.
Many thanks to Net Galley for providing me with an ARC of this book.

Thank you to @netgalley and @rebelgirls for the advanced eCopy of this book in exchange for a fair review

I absolutely adore the Rebel Girls books! This is the second one I’ve read, and love the concept so much. The content is great and am so glad young readers have these books to show them what they can accomplish in this world.

This book in particular, Climate Warriors, is right up my alley, showcasing women who are or who have been a party of the fight for climate justice. The illustrations are beautiful and the stories so inspiring.

I highly recommend this for middle grade readers!

I was kindly invited by Rebel Girls to read this ARC on Netgalley. 

I absolutely loved it. I'm very passionate about climate change issues and the stories in this book were very inspiring. I hope they encourage future generations. 

I love the 'Rebel Minis' series as you can pick specific subjects that you or your child might be more interested in. 
I also really appreciate that they all include tasks that kids (or adults) can do at the end of the book. 
There is also an app where you can find out more about some of the people featured in the books. However it isn't available on android yet!

Another home-run for the Rebel Girls! I loved the collection of inspirational stories of women of all ages who are frontrunners in the fight against climate change. Instead of just inspiring girls, I think this collection will also empower and motivate them to join the climate change movement.

Loved how this one differed from the other collections I read and focused on one area of expertise. Also got a lot of inspiration from it for myself and found some climate warriors I'll be following myself :)

Having read almost every single published by the Rebel Girls team, I have run out of new things to say on their book reviews. But let me make one thing clear: this book is among their best releases so far, at least the top three if not the numero uno!

This collection has inspirational stories of twenty-five female “climate warriors” from around the world. I hadn’t heard of anyone here except for Greta Thunberg, Wangari Maathai and Margaret Atwood. (Yup, I was surprised too to see that last name.) Each of these girls/women has attempted to make a difference in a world that seems to no longer care for nature. They are courageous and inspiring, both qualities being much needed in today’s apathetic ocean of humanity. I was especially happy to see Purnima Devi Barman being included in the line-up.

The foreword by Cristina Mittermeier of SeaLegacy is wonderful. Towards the end of the book, there are small tips on how we can make a difference to ensure a better world for us and everyone else.

In the last two Rebel Girls books, I wasn’t very happy with the illustrations. This book gets it right once again, and how! The sketches of the women are as usual drawn by female visual artists from around the world. But what surprised me was to see that a couple of them were as young as 7 and 9! What talent! 

I don’t need to say anything more. It’s Rebel Girls. It’s for a cleaner environment. It’s for a brighter future. It’s a must-read.

5 shiny stars. 

My thanks to Rebel Girls and NetGalley for the DRC of “Rebel Girls Climate Warriors: 25 Tales of Women Who Protect the Earth”. This review is voluntary and contains my honest opinion about the book.

An inspiring book with portraits of women from now and from the past who dedicated their lives for a better planet. The short stories and colorful illustrations are great together. Like the other Rebel books   this book is easy to read, but the short stories are powerful and inspiring.
