Launched by Amnesty International, the initiative encourages children from four to 10-years-old to read books that explore human rights.
It is being supported by celebrities including The Crown star Olivia Colman and television presenter and former Paralympic basketball player Ade Adepitan.
It comes as research commissioned by Amnesty International UK found that 83 per cent of British children aged eight to 15 said they know little or nothing about their own rights.
Reading Rebels uses stories and activities to explore values like kindness, fairness, and equality. There are two separate reading lists for children with a reading age of four to seven and eight to 10.
