Fin, men i overkant naiv slutt. Snipp snapp snute.

This was a book I really wanted to get my hands on and see how it all looked on paper. It's a book that I will definitely be getting for my daughter, as the whole book is about doing what you know is right, no matter what age you are.

Yes, it's a bit too nicely tied up (in real life it's become a lot harder to get the message to be taken seriously). But, it still gives us, as well as our young ones, hope that someday it might be a little better than it was yesterday. And, hopefully our future with be more brighter because of this book.

I know also, that a book can't do all of that and more, but it can keep leading our youth in the right direction. And, hopefully as many adults as possible, because we are the ones that can keep making change a reality. It all starts with us. Without the change we need and the funding for it, the future for our children will become as bleak as Greta explains in this book.

Yes, I'm an advocate for everything Greta and the saving of our world. But, that didn't affect all of my rating for this book. It really was done nicely, with well placed information about our global crisis in the back of the book, as well as really great illustrations. I'm glad to have been given a chance to read this and share it with my daughter.

yes i am counting this children’s book that i just read for an assignment in my writing seminar towards my goodreads goal. sue me.

also why was it kinda slay? queen greta

Great illustrations and important message. I LOVE this book!

The illustrations are BEAUTIFUL.

This book was pretty cute. It was a fictionalization of Greta Thunberg's life. Greta realizes that the adults or the giants in her life are ruining the environment, and Greta decides to stand up for the trees. I really enjoyed the illustrations in this book although I kind of wanted more from the story itself.

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC.

I've been eyeing this book since we got it at our store, not too long ago. And I'm glad I've gotten the chance to read it while I was at work really quick.

The illustrations in this book were so vibrant & beautiful. Plus this story is a true wake up call for those that are blind to what's truly going on. Open your eyes to what's happening, listen to what's going on, & try to do something! Or really try what you can do.

It doesn't have to be much, baby steps. It's never too late to make a change. :)

Isla-Rose loved this book we discussed who the giants might be and how we could help the forest.

Greta hears from a wolf that the Giants are destroying the forest, and the animals need Greta’s help. Greta doesn’t know what to do at first but comes up with an idea. At first, no one listens. After more people join her fight, the Giants finally stop to listen.

Greta proves that you don’t have to be big to have a voice.
