Greta Thunberg is an important example for modern kids. She shows us not only the importance of protecting the environment but also the power of the individual, even a child, to make a difference. Tucker walks us through how, even if something seems futile initially, if we can at least get one person's attention we've had a positive affect. If one person joins a protest and gains the attention of one person, it has a cumulative affect. And that's what we see in this little picture book. While the message is pretty heavy and serious, the illustrations are charming and magical. This would be a great book to use in a group setting to spark a discussion.
