Climate change is an important topic to teach children from a young age to get them more focused on solutions now and as they grow, so 'The Tantrum That Saved The World' is a storybook that will teach them the basics in a lighthearted manner.
Instead of focusing on the clean nature of climate change, the book follows the main character Sophia who is approached by various people and even a polar bear to ask for help. Sophia becomes annoyed at first yet realizes shortly that small changes and rallying together larger groups can help those who need help.
'The Tantrum That Saved The World' is authored by Megan Herbert and climatologist Michael Mann, and is suitable for children as young as four and as old as 11 to teach them how to combat climate change.
