MEDIA REVIEWS
An excellent down-to-earth handbook for teens and pre-teensThis wonderful book is a mixture of a manifesto and an operations manual for how to make Natural History. Every young person in the country should be given this book: it is life affirming and brilliantly practical. It is a roadmap for protecting the fragile planet on which we liveA really informative book for young people about how to become an environmental activist,with lots of fun ways to take practical action. I totally agree with the message: We all have the power to make a difference and help the planet!What's so clever about this book is that it manages to combine being practical and informative with great story telling. It's enlightening,inspiring and empowering - a book for anyone of any age. I'm going to give it to everyone I know!Without action,hope is fantasy. But mix the right amount of hope with action,then double both,and you can change the world. Hendrikus van Hensbergen shows us how to do it,starting now,in his fine new bookA wonderfully informative,fun and practical book that highlights the most important fact - That small individual acts of kindness towards our planet,will make a great difference. A great source of inspirationStraight talking advice on how to identify goals and realise themA treasure trove of practical advice and inspiration
