Learn more about what climate changes means and how it's affecting our planet in this climate book for kids!
Climate change is a critical and timely topic of deep concern, here told in an age-appropriate manner, with clarity and hope. This activist book for kids shows children that they too can make a difference!
When the weather changes daily, how do we really know that Earth's climate is changing? This climate change book for kids shows the science behind the headlines―evidence from flowers, butterflies, birds, frogs, trees, glaciers and much more, gathered by scientists from all over the world, sometimes with assistance from young "citizen-scientists." And here is what young people, and their families and teachers, can do to learn about climate change and take action!
