Great book to help kids deal with the impending threat of climate change. Inspires kids to action and instills hope but doesn't tiptoe around the facts and real dangers. It means a lot to me that the book was endorsed by climate change leaders: Washington Governor Jay Inslee, Bill McKibben, the Pew Center on Global Climate Change.

This is an excellent and necessary book. Kids need access to well-researched, clearly and engagingly presented, information about climate change. They can find it here.
