Learn how a movement builds from one person to a billion in this A to Z environmental activism book. Readers count from 1 to 10 - and then in larger increments to a billion - as they learn new terms from "conservation" to "activism." Inset boxes provide easy-to-understand definitions of additional new vocabulary words.
"A call to eco-action based on the power of numbers . . . Young readers marching in step will meet Greta Thunberg and other iconic environmentalists and glimpse multiple ways of participating in the movement" - Kirkus Reviews
“Combining the standard concepts of counting and the alphabet with newer ones of activism and climate change puts a fresh twist on both” – School Library Journal
“What is climate action? This picture book nicely answers that question by counting the many people and ways that are involved” – Youth Services Book Review
