Review: The Rebel Girls Handbook - Rebel Girls - October 2022 Another installment in the amazing series is the Rebel Girls, this is the series that I wish had been around when I was a child. I would have had stronger role models and ended up on a different path in life had it been for books like this.  Instead, when I was younger it wasn't a thing and I was the type of girl who ended up with a bedroom wall covered in posters of musicians and celebrities. It's only now in my thirties that I look back and imagine how my life could have been different if I had role models that were inspirational females.

Black Girl Magic is laid out in the same format as the other books in this series where each tale is given a double spread of one page per story and a full-color pi...
