Where was this when I was growing up?

Books are an amazing gift to give to kids, they can help expand their imagination and be more creative. But if you look at some of our favourite fairytales they all have the same recurring theme – a happy ending with a prince charming.

While this is a lovely story and a perfectly realistic dream to have, it is important to make sure girls know that can be whatever they want and do whatever they please.

That’s why one company has created an amazing storybook full of inspiring tales of strong women. The book is called Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls and contains 100 tales of intelligent, artistic, sporty and determined women.
