Little Feminist Board Book Set: Activists / Artists / Leaders / Pioneers Board book – 3 Oct. 2017

Great set of board books and an alternative to pink, princessy gifts. Interesting women included and women of colour represented.Illustrations are bright and eye catching. The new mum loved them and hopefully they will be a great addition to the bedtime reading!

Ordered this for my little girl for Xmas.4 little hardback books with quite thick pages making it easier to littles to turn pages.Short and sweet sentences great for little toddlers. A good way to introduce littles to important figures throughout history.

Super cute, robust for toddlers, brightly colored and simple easy to understand stories, for girls and boys.

Great little present for my niece

M 6 month old loves the colourful pictures. I love the strong women represented in each book, very pleased to see WOC in each one. Very good quality, great price and a fab idea.

Arrived very quickly and in excellent condition! Bought as a gift for a baby shower, went down extremely well with mum. Apparently baby loves how bright the books are too

We bought this as a gift for our friends little girl 1st birthday. You get 4 books in a lovely little container, each of which highlights a different set of amazing women.Drawings are cute and I am sure that every mom will love theseIf you found this helpful - please click yes below

The media could not be loaded. We received these books for my unborn daughter at my baby shower. Almost two years on, and I can say that they have sadly not been the most popular books on her shelf. I would say she has had more fun slotting them in and out of the box than reading them.As an adult and someone who is keen to teach my daughter about strong women so that she can hopefully become one, I can certainly see the appeal in these books. The designs are beautiful, the colours are bold, the board books are very sturdy for little hands and there are a good range of prominent/impressive female figures recorded across the four books (though Hilary Clinton could be seen as a controversial inclusion for some). Ten points for exposure. But for young ones, I feel the appeal ends there.There really is no story to be found - the books read like a list of different women with associated platitudes. Motivational reading for toddlers? I don’t think so. Sure, it could spark some further discussion about the women and feminist values with older children, but older children are likely to be bored by the more basic content - more mature books - i.e. the ‘little people, big dreams’ series would probably be more appropriate in these circumstances.Am I disappointed to own these books? Certainly not. I just don’t think they’ve been as impactful/enjoyed as I would have hoped. But hey, they certainly can’t hurt - and maybe, just maybe, early introduction and exposure might form some healthy feminist foundations anyway.
