Booklist - 03/01/2023 Part of the Changemakers series, this approachable and inspiring collective biography shines a light on 12 kids making positive impacts on the world. A foreword is provided by Jonah Larson, a young social entrepreneur and the founder of Jonah’s Hands, an organization that uses Larson’s talent for crocheting to raise funds for social causes in Ethiopia. In it he writes, “The children in this book teach us that when each of us takes action, we can help resolve social problems or work to save the planet.” The 12 innovators profiled here represent a wonderfully diverse mix of kids from around the world who are committed to a variety of causes. Each identified a problem (fast fashion, period poverty, food waste, plastic straws, a lack of disability access, etc.) and found a clever way to combat the issue. The brief text is full of factoids and accompanied by full-page illustrations in gouache and colored pencil that showcase young people making a difference. The book ends with recommended websites and tips for sustainability and being a responsible consumer. - Copyright 2023 Booklist.
