Laura Dekker: Sailing Around the World

Laura Dekker was born on a boat and lived her first five years at sea. As she grew, Laura had one dream: To sail around the world. Despite many challenges, at 16 years old, Laura became the youngest person to do just that—all by herself! You can find Laura in the new book Rebel Girls: 100 Inspiring Young Changemakers! We're celebrating all September long with two special Changemakers podcast episodes each week. Preorder Rebel Girls: 100 Inspiring Young Changemakers wherever books are sold to learn about how girls just like you are changing the world. This story was produced by Joy Smith with sound design and mixing by Mumble Media. It was written by Alexis Stratton and edited by Abby Sher. Narration by Adrienne Patino Dunn. Thank you to the whole Rebel Girls team, who make this podcast possible. Stay rebel!
