Girl Rebels

From what age are we allowed to change the world?

.

Firstly, I wish to thank @titancomics for reaching out and sending a copy of Girl Rebels in exchange for a review and to be a part of their book tour. Take a peek below to see what the book is about and my thoughts!

.

Follow the stories of six incredible women in modern history, including Greta Thunberg, Emma ‘X’ Gonzales, and Malala Yousafzai, among others.

Six girls, five empowering adventures. From climate activism to fighting for education and gun control, each story delves deep into the personal struggles and triumphs of remarkable individuals.

.

My thoughts:

This is one of the most inspirational graphic novels I've ever read. Out of the six stories, I was familiar with three and learned new things about these extraordinary young women.

The diversity of the stories with the art styles shine off the page. There is a lot of joy captured along with the devastation of what these girls were put through. In Yusra Mardini's story, there is a small panel of art that brought tears to my eyes, as one moment it is a normal day in your life and then next something catastrophic changes everything.

Yes, I cried a lot in this book. Tearing up at a little Greta Thunberg and her struggles before the protesting crossed her mind. Emma & The Parkland Kids took me right back to when the news broke.

What struck me throughout the book is that these experiences have happened in the timeliness of my life. I remember the story of Malala Yousafzai, how suddenly the image of this girl was everywhere and finding out what happened to her. A teenager myself at the time and being horrified to find out that young girls being educated in another part of the world was forbidden and could get you killed.

I adore nonfiction with chapters that are dedicated individually and give complete focus. I feel that the artists chosen to represent the woman featured were a perfect fit. There is tragedy in the pages, but the power, hope, and determination overcome it all. This left me so emotional and proud. Knowing how far these women have come and what can be achieved at a young age proves that a little change can lead to better futures.
