No More Plastic by Alma Fullerton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed the use of diorama art made from plastic waste by the illustrator. It really brought the book full circle and shows how it is up to us to change and save our world. Isley is in all of us.

If Only by Mies van Hout
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a beautiful story that is equally beautifully illustrated. The message of this story is to show that you may look at others and wish you had what they had, but you should celebrate what makes you, you. This message is so important for our youth-to celebrate and value yourself and what makes you unique.
