In his signature style, Allan Drummond tells the story of the largest
solar plant in the world, the Noor Solar Power Plant in Morocco's Sahara
Desert, in Solar Story--by relating it to the everyday life of a
schoolgirl in a small village next to the plant.
As we see on a class field trip, the plant is not only bringing reliable
power to the village and far beyond, but is providing jobs, changing
lives, and upending the old ways of doing things--starting within the
girl's own family. Blending detail-filled watercolors, engaging
cartoon-style narration, in-depth sidebars, and an afterword, the author
showcases another real-world community going green in amazing ways. A
"powerful" addition to the author's acclaimed series about conservation
and renewable energy innovations in everyday life.
