A Is for Activist

New ed. (2013)
(4) K-3 Originally a board book, this new version's larger spreads showcase the colorful digital art. The passionate social justice angle and fairly sophisticated politics make this not-your-average alphabet book. It's a bit overblown--and the alphabet constraint is overstretched--but with lines like "Y is for You. And Youth. Your planet. Your rights," children are encouraged to effect change.
