What’s It About?
CUENTOS DE BUENAS NOCHES PARA NIÑAS REBELDES is a Spanish-language podcast with different kid-hosts in each episode. It is based on the English book and podcast, Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls. In each episode of the podcast one remarkable woman narrates the story of another who is noteworthy for her integrity and her significant accomplishments. Episodes also include a shorter companion episode that introduces the narrator. All of the women highlighted have demonstrated courage and perseverance to get through hardship or adversity and reach their goals. Every episode ends with a thoughtful question from a kid to the narrator about what it means to be a rebel girl. Episodes and bonus content are also available on the Rebel Girls app.
