Review Quotes:
"Young environmental activists around the world are making a difference... The comics were created by different cartoonists whose backgrounds, styles, and even palettes are equally wide-ranging. Overall, these are heartening examples of young people taking action against what is probably the most important issue in all our lives; readers will emerge compelled to make a difference themselves." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"A brilliant, powerful, must-read for anyone and everyone on planet earth." - Hannah Gold, author of The Last Bear

The images are striking and emotional in places, moving in all the right ways, which perfectly complement the stories being told." - School Library Journal (starred review)
