Girl Activist

by Louisa Kamps, Susanna Daniel, and Michelle Wildgen, illlustrated by Georgia Rucker

Mini-biographies of unstoppable women and non-binary activists—from Malala Yousafzai to Ida B. Wells, Emma Gonzalez to Gloria Steinem, Wangari Maathai to Jazz Jennings—offer windows into what it takes to stand up for a cause, rally others together, and even ignite a movement. The book features activists from around the world and throughout history, spotlighting impressive women who have fought for workers' safety, women's rights, racial equality, animal welfare, democracy, environmental causes, and more. Each story reminds readers that they really can make a difference in the world and inspires today's young activists to stand up for what they believe in.
