What a joy today to see the package at the door and find that
Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls has finally arrived! It was a Kickstarter campaign we backed, and the results are even better than I thought they would be. Both of the kids are sporting "rebel girl" tattoos (Queen Elizabeth and Maud Stevens Wagner). Alex has been holed up with the book so I haven't seen much of it but I noted all inhabited continents seem to be represented. The women are queens and inventors, ancient and current (one inventor was born in 1997!), and at least one pirate. It's in encyclopedia form, with one page devoted to each Rebel, and I reminded Alex we can get books to learn more about the ones she's most interested in.
This week was a really great time to receive this book.

We had thought about backing the Kickstarter campaign, but never got around to it. I'm going to go ahead and get it for the girls for Christmas now (hopefully not too late for it to arrive via DPO).
