Greta Thunberg is fifteen years of age who decides to protest outside the government chambers in Stockholm for climate change rather than attending school. Understanding Greta's passion for the environment her parents support her.
Written in simple and accessible language with great illustrations, Greta's Story: The Schoolgirl Who Went on Strike to Save the Planet is a nice introduction for children to learn about climate change.

I recently picked this up when I went to my local bookstore as I enjoy reading short and quick books but also because I am fascinated by Greta's story. I read her book; No one is too small to make a difference' last year and was shocked at how passionate she is. This isn't written by her, but talks about her story and journey for saving the environment. I wish I read this book before the other as I felt I would've had a more clear understanding of what she mentioned.
I am constantly blown away by Greta's achievements and passion for saving the planet which is clearly shown throughout. I especially like how there is a section at the back which includes 11 changes that you can make as well as articles and how to talk to your children about the environment in a way that is age appropriate.
I highly recommend reading this and will definitely pick up more books that I see about Greta but also more environmental books to educate myself more and make the changes that I need too.
This was read for my 'read a book that starts with the word 'the' and 'read a book with a cover that matches the colour of your birthstone' challenge for The Reading Rush 2020.

This is not even written by Greta Thunberg. In the German translation it said that she “suffers“ from Asperger’s, although she denied this phrasing in an interview! Of course I support Greta‘s claim for climate justice, but I do not like this book. I know that it’s a children‘s book, still it could benefit from a more accurate writing style.

Not bad, but not the best biographical work on Greta or the movement.
