Reach for this book when your child expresses concern about the environment or feels overwhelmed by the 'greyness' of urban life. It is a perfect choice for children who want to feel empowered to make a difference but need a creative, imaginative outlet to process big topics like conservation and urban sprawl. Through the lens of a classic superhero adventure, the story transforms environmental stewardship into an epic quest. Maleek is a young boy who, alongside his loyal robot companion Marvyn, uses time travel to solve a modern crisis: the loss of nature in his concrete city. By venturing into the past to bring back seeds and plants, Maleek models proactive problem solving and hope. The book is developmentally ideal for ages 4 to 8, using striking photo-illustration style to bridge the gap between fantasy and reality. It encourages children to see themselves as guardians of their own neighborhoods.
