Reviews:
“A call to eco-action based on the power of numbers . . . Young readers marching in step will meet Greta Thunberg and other iconic environmentalists and glimpse multiple ways of participating in the movement” – Kirkus Reviews
“Combining the standard concepts of counting and the alphabet with newer ones of activism and climate change puts a fresh twist on both” – School Library Journal
