Introduce your brilliant baby to the young climate change activist
Greta Thunberg.
Greta Thunberg first heard about global warming when she was 8 years old
and she was very troubled by it. She was 15 when she started a school
strike. Greta led protests at home in Sweden and abroad, and soon began
speaking to groups including the World Economic Forum, the British and
European parliaments, and the United Nations Climate Action Summit and
Conferences. She has received many awards for her efforts. Greta has an
autism spectrum disorder, known as Asperger's syndrome, which she calls
her superpower because it helps her strongly focus her attention on
climate change. She continues to work to get countries to decrease
emissions, and she has inspired so much awareness and activism that the
result is known as the "Greta Effect." Kate Coombs' engaging narrative
and Seth Lucas' captivating art teach young readers about this inspiring
conservationist.
