Reviews
"A call-in for the next generation, equipping readers with knowledge and a framework to create change - part of the publisher's Empower the Future series."--The Bookseller
"A rousing investigation into the climate crisis. Part of the "Empower the Future" series, and one of Quarto's lead titles for August."--The Bookseller
'Dany's book is approachable, her methods accessible to all and she wants us to see that if we protect the planet then we are also protecting ourselves. She presents us with activities, things we can think about, things we can put into action, at the end of each chapter. She also gives us calls to action. In essence gives us the tools we need to make a difference and explains throughout why it matters.' --Armadillo Magazine

"Informative and well-considered, this book looks beyond the scientific causes of the climate crisis shining a light on the unjust systems such as capitalism, racism and patriarchal structures which have contributed to climate injustice."

--Children's Books Ireland

" . . . will spur young readers to action."

--Sharon Rawlins, Booklist, Starred Review
