Description
Great Lives in Graphics: Greta Thunberg is a graphic retelling of Greta's story that gives children a visual snapshot of her life and environmental activism while educating them on everything from the science of climate change to living with Asperger's Syndrome.
You may already know that Greta Thunberg is one of the most iconic figures in the modern environmental movement, but did you know that she was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize at the age of only 16?
Or that she sailed across the Atlantic Ocean in a zero-carbon yacht to attend a climate event in New York?
And how she is also raising awareness about Asperger syndrome and the importance of appreciating neurodiverse people?
