Reach for this book when your child is starting to ask big questions about the environment or when you want to celebrate the beauty of intersecting cultures.

While tackling serious topics like climate change and corporate greed, the tone remains high energy and hopeful. It is an excellent choice for reluctant readers who thrive on visual storytelling and bilingual puns. Parents will appreciate how it weaves together Latinx and Arab heritage while modeling how a small group of friends can take meaningful action against environmental and social challenges.
