I can't say it enough, I love the Little People, Big Dreams series. This is one of my favourites in this series for a couple of reasons. I love that this is timely and is taking place now. Also that this young girl has autism, showing that anyone can do great things. There is a brief description of Greta's family and home-life, but most of the book deals with her reaction to climate change and what she does about it. I am angered at the way she has been treated and demeaned by a certain head of a country, but that is not in this book. It is a very simple telling of what she is doing and how other children have joined in to try and help our world now and for the future. I love the quirky, yet attractive illustrations in this book, they make it fun to look at, while sharing an important message, ordinary children, doing extraordinary things. These short, non-fiction books include a short story of how these amazing people began life and pursued their dreams. There is a short biography, photographs and timeline at the end of the book to add to what the reader learns in the story. As always, I recommend this series to libraries, both public and school.

I love the little people, big dreams books. They are well written, tell a delightful true story in an age appropriate way and have beautiful illustrations.

This is a delightful book from this series as it is telling a modern day story. I am so impressed with Greta and her commitment to our world. This story is inspiring and will help all children see themselves in the story of this modern day hero! I recommend this and all of the books in this series for anyone who reads to children!

The publisher made a copy of this book available on Netgalley. The thoughts and opinions here are my honest review.

I finded this book cute for kids and very informative making this book perfect for a child. The vocabulary is perfect no so complex and not so simple making kids learn more words.

Unfortunately I no longer have the right program to download and read protected pdfs. Thank you for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Who doesn't love Greta Thunberg?
I am so inspired by her and how dedicated she is to save our planet.
I have read about her before, and this book is a great great summary to know who Greta is, her background and what she has done in these past years. It is a great book to be introduced to any kids out there. It would be fun to read since it is beautifully illustrated.
So, if you need a stocking filler this Christmas or someone's kids birthday or just a little random gift to your friend's kids, consider this book as your option :)

A modern addition to this classic series. It was so lovely to learn about Greta's family history is climate change and how it shaped her actions. Perfect to start a discussion with young children about climate change and taking action on what you believe in.

This is a story of Greta Thunberg, a child activist that has brought worldwide attention to global warming. The story was short and to the point. And while it had tidbits of her life I feel like there were important chunks of information missing and that the story was rushed through. The illustrations are wonderful.

This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of Greta Thunberg and her climate strikes in a way that kids will grasp easily.

Another excellent book for this excellent collection that I have been reading from the beginning. I really think these books should be mandatory reading for kindergarten students!

An extremely interesting insight into not only Greta's legacy but her origins too, An important message for all youth.

Greta Thunberg, born in Sweden, learned at a young age that it is important to protect the environment. She was diagnosed with selective mutism and Aspergers Syndrome. She only spoke about things that were very important to her. The environment fit that description. This gave her the platform to speak out against global warming. She peacefully protested outside the Swedish Parliament and inspired other children to form peaceful protests for the environment.

This book describes Greta Thunberg’s life in detail, but in easily understood language for children. The illustrations are well done.

As an educator, I would recommend this book to children to see that they can do big things. Everyone can make a difference.

Thank you to the Quarto Group and NetGalley for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

This was another I throughly enjoyed. It was fun to read about someone who is still alive and still able to make changes in the world.
I personally find what I know about Greta to be very inspirational and the fact that she's a young individual makes it all the more impactful, when fully grown adults aren't or won't grasp the importance of our planet, it's stability and it's ability or struggle to flourish.

I love that this book is about a modern-day hero, as many similar books only talk about people from long ago. When my child realized that Greta Thunberg was someone who was living now, and was still a child (well, a teenager), his mind was blown. It really brought home the fact that someone like him could make a difference in the world. He has been inspired to make changes and has asked us to do more for the earth as a family. I love that he was inspired by her!

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. These books about important people in our world are great for kids and written in an interesting way that they learn and enjoy a book. This one about Greta Thunberg is even more interesting as she is such a young woman accomplishing so much.

I received an electronic ARC from Quarto Publishing Group - Frances Lincoln Children's Books through NetGalley.
Part of the Little People, BIG DREAM series.
Sanchez Vegara captures Greta Thunberg's heart and passion in this biography. She explains what formed Greta's early drive to protect the planet and brings readers to her current activities and commitment. Simple to follow text and a timeline at the end.
Always a joy to read her biographies for lower to middle elementary level readers.

Another great book from the Little People Big Dreams series. Kids need to learn as early as possible that if they decide to stand up for something, they CAN make a difference, no matter their age. I especially love how they said that her selective mutism and Asperger's worked as her "super power."

This is a wonderful book that will teach young readers that just because they are a small person does not mean that they cannot have a big voice. Main points that stand out are environmental conservation, inclusiveness, and acting passionately on your interests. Although Greta’s story is new, and since she is young she does not have as much history in the sense of lifetime, she has made a huge impact in a short amount of time, and that can inspire young readers. This would also be a great pick for Earth Day studies.

ARC received for unbiased review from NetGalley.

I think this is a really powerful entry into this series because it shows kids that young people today can make a difference and can get powerful adults to listen to them. It also provides good representation for kids that might have conditions that make them feel different, like Greta's Asperger syndrome, to show them that it isn't a barrier to success or a weakness.

This is another great addition to this collection of children's books. I think it is so important for children to see other kids being able to shape and change the world for the better, and Greta is a prime example of that.

Our family has never read any of the Big Dream series. This was a great length of book for my kids (3rd grade and Kindergarten) with a great amount of information. We read this at bedtime last night. Right away this morning the kids asked to learn more about Greta. The book was a great introduction that spurred more conversation and interest.
