“Make Your Mark, Make a Difference" – Standing Up for People, Animals, and the Planet

Joan Marie Galat talks about “Make Your Mark, Make a Difference – A Kid’s Guide to Standing Up for People, Animals, and the Planet”" on this edition of "The Kids' Bookshelf."

Joan Marie Galat is an internationally award-winning author of more than twenty-five books, including “Dark Matters: Nature’s Reaction to Light Pollution,” and “Too Much Trash: How Litter Is Hurting Animals.” She is known for presenting complex information to young readers in approachable and engaging ways. She joins us to talk about “Make Your Mark, Make a Difference – A Kid’s Guide to Standing Up for People, Animals, and the Planet.” It's a kid's guide to activism, with advice and ideas about how children can make their voices heard about issues they care about. It includes profiles of activists, suggested activities, fun quizzes, and more. It also offers advice to adults about how they can support their child's interest in activism.

I requested and was provided with a copy of the book, but this video is not sponsored.

Hi!, I'm Dan Skinner. Thanks for watching this interview. "The Kids' Bookshelf" is a channel for adults looking for age-appropriate books for the children in their lives. The series features interviews with authors and illustrators of children's books including picture books, chapter books, and middle-grade books. Viewers will learn about the inspiration for the books, what themes are explored in the books, and see sample illustrations. My goal is to give you enough information to decide if the book would be a good addition to your child's library. The series also provides a sneak peek into the creative process of the authors and illustrators.
