When hills were cleared and streams thinned, she answered with something small but powerful: a seed. That seed became the Green Belt Movement-neighbors planting together, protecting parks, and restoring hope one sapling at a time.
This uplifting, kid-friendly biography shows how Wangari's steady courage helped communities grow millions of trees-and how young readers can help, too.
What kids will discover:
- How a curious girl became a Nobel Peace Prize-honored leader by caring for people and the planet
- Why trees matter for clean water, healthy soil, wildlife, and cooler towns
- How teamwork, science, and perseverance can turn a small start into big change
Inside the book:
- Five engaging chapters: Home, Study, Seed, Stand, Green Belt
- Clear, lyrical storytelling for ages 3-8 (great read-aloud for younger readers)
- Two black-and-white cartoon illustrations per chapter, richly textured for print
- A simple "start your own green team" guide with easy steps any child or class can try
Perfect for home shelves, classrooms, and libraries, "Wangari Maathai: Seeds, Courage, and the Green Belt Movement" celebrates an African heroine whose ideas still grow today.
If your young reader loves true stories, nature, and making a difference, this book will plant inspiration-and maybe a few real trees-long after the last page.
