Little People, Big Dreams: Vanessa Nakate by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara & Olivia Amoah. Let’s introduce the youngest dreamers to the Ugandan climate-justice activist with the Little People, Big Dreams: Vanessa Nakate book.
As a kid, when little Vanessa heard about climate change, she thought it was something that happened on the other side of the world. As an adult, she saw how droughts led to crop failure that left families hungry. Inspired by other activists, Vanessa took a stand and began campaigning to save the Congolian rainforests. Soon, she was invited to take her campaign around the world.
In 2020, Vanessa participated in an important summit about climate change. But when she was cropped out of a photograph featuring other climate-change activists, it felt like not just her contribution to the movement had been erased, but that the needs of a whole continent had been disregarded.
It was a moment that shocked the world, but it spurred Vanessa on to raise her voice louder and to fight harder for climate justice for Africans. Today, she continues to be a leader in the climate-change movement and a voice of her generation.
The hardcover books have longer sentences, extending the stories for beginning readers. Your little one will enjoy the stylish and quirky illustrations as you read the engaging story of this fascinating icon. With extra facts about Vanessa's life at the back, it’s a great educational pick.
This series makes the lives of these role models accessible for children, providing a powerful message to inspire the next generation of outstanding people who will change the world!
