Girls Like Me

Celebrate Real-Life Rebel Girls All Around the World

Take a trip around the world and hear from 70+ girls from 46 different countries in Rebel Girls’ ambitious, globe-spanning project: Girls Like Me!

Girls Like Me inspires young readers to be proud of their interests and of who they are, while learning about the lives, traditions, and hobbies of real-life Rebel Girls all around the world.

  • A fantastic educational resource to teach young girls about the world and all its beautiful people and cultures
  • Each story is brought to life with specially commissioned photography and artwork from dozens of international creators and artists, including 72 photographers across the world
