MEDIA REVIEWS
There were so many brilliant stories to pick from that it's impossible for me to choose a favourite. * Library Girl and Book Boy *
Each tale takes us on a captivating adventure that shows the heroines strengths and how they overcome the most troublesome situations. -- Hayley Summerfield * Reading Zone *
I was particularly interested to see how the boys would react to having a book full of female protagonists (they loved it!). Every time I picked up the book the room would go silent, every time there was a plot twist the children gasped. If I had to stop reading part way through a story there were groans of disappointment and cries of 'Just a bit longer!' * The Bookish Fairy *
My daughter is already reading Fierce, Fearless and Free and I cannot wait to buy a few copies for our school library. This is a delightful book full of inspiring stories that just need to be shared. * Anna's Adventures in Bookland *
These tales are well written, timeless and filled with strong female role models. * Book Murmuration *
... this book would be a brilliant addition to any bookshelf! The title illustrations are beautiful and detailed with strong female characters at the forefront. * My Shelves are Full *
I really enjoyed every story in this book... I flew through it in one sitting. * Library of Books and Tea *
... I personally loved the selection. There was always a new adventure to experience...These girls were very fearless indeed. * Married to Books Reviews and Blog *
This is a wonderful book bursting with fierce girls found in myths and legends from all over the world. * Booktails *
