Who's changing the world?
Summary Do you ever think about the kids who don't have school supplies? Do you wonder what you could do to make their school year better? The education activists in this book saw problems like this one, and they wanted to make a change. A seven-year-old in Canada made sure that kids in Ethiopia had pencils. A girl in Pakistan risked her life to make sure girls could go to school too. A second grader in Minnesota went to the governor to help end bullying in his state. Discover more about the education activists who are fighting to give kids a better education, and learn how you can change the world too!
