This is a fantastic book about activism and the steps to being an activist for teens.

I would not add it to my elementary library but I am going to send the title over to my friend that is a high school librarian because this would be a great addition to her library.

The steps and tips that are laid out allow teens to understand how they can become activists in a realistic and meaningful way. There are tips to keep them going when they lose hope. I could've used this book in my youth. I loved how real examples of activists are sprinkled throughout.

Thank you to Kids Can Press and Net Galley for the eARC.
