Feminism books for preteen/teen

[Frolicinameadow]

Hi All,
My DD is lacking in confidence a little and I would really like to get her some books, maybe podcasts and/or tv recommendations to help her understand feminism. The power and strength of being a woman and how to feel more confident in herself.
thank you!

There have been quite a few 'amazing women of history' type of books, OP.

This site, though US based, has some good recs:

I know it's not what you asked for, but people often say that learning a sport or martial arts or something similar can help with confidence.

HerStory is a pretty good one with a sensible selection of famous women

And "Things A Bright Girl Can Do" is good (possibly older age group - features kissing).

This book is not specifically about feminism but is very good on political activism - my kids read & re-read bits of it

but confidence mostly comes from actually being part of something or being good at something, so clubs or sports or art or something.

Goodnight stories for rebel girls is great. My dd loved it

There is a male in it whose achievments are liking glitter and bullying his way into girls toilets.
Ironically named Coy.

No males in these though
