Priče za laku noć za mlade buntovnice

Elena Favilli, Francesca Cavallo

Bedtime Stories for Young Rebels are imaginative and inspiring stories, written in the style of fairy tales, about 100 brave women – rebels – who changed the course of history with their lives, destinies, and achievements.

They are painters, scientists, activists, dancers, astronauts, musicians, boxers, writers, politicians... from all over the world. Each one is dedicated to a whole page and a portrait that perfectly reflects the spirit of the depicted heroine. The lives of many of them were not a fairy tale, but with their dedication and courage they overcame all challenges and showed that there are no dreams that cannot be realized. This luxurious book was illustrated by as many as 60 artists from all over the world, making it a completely unique project for children and young people. The intention of this completely original collection of bedtime stories is to inspire girls (as well as their mothers, aunts, cousins) to dream big dreams, boost their self-confidence and give them the strength to develop their personal talents and thus shape the world they live in. Bedtime stories that we should definitely read to our daughters. Hollee Actman Becker, Parents magazine Children who read this book before bed will surely dream big and inspiring dreams. Fiona Noble, The Guardian In these bedtime stories, instead of princesses, the heroines are real women who changed the world.
