Little Naturalists: Greta Thunberg Takes a Stand

Kate Coombs • Illustrated by Seth Lucas Greta Thunberg heard about global warming when she was 8 years old and was very troubled by it. She was 15 when she started a school strike. She led protests at home in Sweden and abroad, and soon began speaking to groups that included the World Economic Forum, the British and European Parliaments, and the United Nations Climate Action Summit. Greta has an autism spectrum disorder known as Asperger syndrome, which she calls her superpower because it helps her focus her attention on climate change. She continues working to decrease emissions, and she has inspired so much awareness and activism that the result is known as the “Greta Effect.” Coombs’s engaging narrative and Lucas’s fun art teach young readers about this inspiring conservationist.

KATE COOMBS is an award-winning author of original fairy tales, poems, middle-grade fantasy novels, and picture books, including the critically acclaimed Water Sings Blue, which won the Lee Bennett Hopkins Poetry Award for 2012, and many books in the bestselling BabyLit series. She lives in Bountiful, Utah.
