Kid at the Animal Summit

Publisher Hélium
Category Children's Books
Age 9-1212-15
A powerful novel about the environment and respect for wildlife, in which an 11-year-old heroine follows in the footsteps of Greta Thunberg!

Paris, 2030: as magnetic storms and other climate catastrophes have become commonplace, the first ever Animal Summit is organised. Its aim: to bring all the Earth's inhabitants together – humans, animals, even germs – to agree on an equitable management of natural resources, which need to be preserved starting now. High schooler Kid is chosen by all the schools to report on this historic event.
When an attack forces everyone into the basement conference room, species must learn to cooperate if they're going to be able to pull through: for their survival and also the future of the entire planet.
Part Jungle Book, part Great Escape with environmentalism in the thick of it all.
