Summary
An inspiring look at young climate change activists who are changing the world



The world is facing a climate crisis like we've never seen before. And kids around the world are stepping up to raise awareness and try to save the planet. As people saw in the youth climate strike in September 2019, kids will not stay silent about this subject--they're going to make a change. Meet 12 young activists from around the world who are speaking out and taking action against climate change. Learn about the work they do and the challenges they face, and discover how the future of our planet starts with each and every one of us.

Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "With climate change--and the urgent need for each of us to do our part to reverse it--now undeniably on our radar, the question of what to do and how to help can be overwhelming. This book features 12 children from around the world who have shown exceptional determination and success in doing their part. Their work is far-ranging: reducing traffic pollution, eradicating single-use plastic, campaigning against rhino poaching, turning school food waste into garden compost, and more. Each two-page spread features one of the activists, briefly describing their work and noting its importance. The descriptions are not extensive, but readers are given just enough of a taste to inspire and motivate. They will notice that every featured child is surrounded by a community of people also participating in the work, that these heroes are one among many. The illustrations brim with flora and fauna, light and color, and smiling people who are happy in their responsibility as caretakers of the planet. A timely and charming book."
