[T]his book is accessible, readable and beautifully done!....a gorgeous take on educating children about climate change....It's a well thought-out out structure which leads kids through some of the trickier issues without overwhelming them with information... books like this (and Neal's other book about plastic pollution) give me great joy to have in the classroom.
