Children can become a #2minutesuperhero by taking up the challenges in Kids Fight Climate Change by Martin Dorey, illustrated by Tim Wesson. Its a colourful guide to saving the planet, with changes to make in everyday life, from eating less meat and dairy to turning down the heating and wearing a jumper. * Daily Express, Scottish Daily Express, Daily Mirror and The Irish Daily Mirror *
I think this book is great for everyone and would definitely be good for use in schools, forest schools and after school groups like the Scouts. This book has inspired me, whenever I see rubbish I will put it in the bin or when Im at my local beach I will do a beach clean [] It really takes 2 minutes to do things to help our world. #2minutesuperhero. * Books Up North *
Sophie absolutely loves this fantastic eco kids book. She loves Greta Thunberg, looking after our environment and is eager for any tips on how she can help. This is bite sized information for our eco kid warriors. Beautiful concept and beautifully laid out. -- Parent * Toppsta *
We are now starting to tally up our superhero points and keep track on who has been completing the most missions within the class. This is definitely a book every child should have. -- Teacher * Toppsta *
