I like the idea of this book and will be reading it both myself and to my pupils at school but it would be nice if it had a few illustrations and colour in it to make it more appealing to younger children.

This book starts by giving you a little background on Greta Thunberg, including her family and how she came to be, in my opinion anyway, the voice for climate change. I particularly liked that it mentioned her Asperger's Syndrome as, I think it could be reassuring and helpful for children reading who face similar barriers/challenges.
The chapters in this book were short, only 3 or four pages on each topic which I enjoyed as it meant the information was concise and to the point, helping to keep interest. Within each chapter the issues which can often be difficult to understand were broken down in easy, simple language. Each chapter highlights the issue regarding that topic e.g. plastic, what will happen if change isn't made and what could be done to help. This again was a really easy format to follow and gave you as the reader a good insight into the issue before reassuring you with what you could do.
"No man is an island. Everything we do, even the smallest gesture can make a difference." p115
The second to last chapter gives you ten small things (which could make a big difference) that everyone or anyone can do to help to bring about change. I think that this was a really good way to end the book which could bring so much despair by leaving you the reader with some hope and a way to fight.
"In essence, it means starting to think in terms of what will bring benefit to all, not just individuals." p93
All in all I think this is a great book that could be enjoyed by a range of children and adults. Those who are just dipping their toes into the climate change movement or those who want to gain a bit more information. It is simple yet informative and the final chapter gives definitions of words and key terms, useful websites and a list of references, all of which would be very useful for further research or helping you to understand more. The teacher inside me is thinking how great it would be to use in class, especially if you were doing a 'No Planet B' or similar topic as each chapter could be a focus for a lesson. I also really liked the simple yet effective illustrations throughout!
