Fighting in a World on Fire

Praise

“Reading this brilliant book I found myself underlining whole passages, ticking repeatedly in the margins and inwardly cheering. Every school library should buy a copy. Every concerned parent should make sure their children have access to it.”
—Tom Tolkien, School Reading List

“The intensity and urgency of the need for meaningful climate action comes through loud and clear…This book has two goals: to provoke strong reactions and to create committed activists. Readers will find much to think about.”
—Booklist

“Four hefty chapters chart a progressive path for a young would-be environmental activist, with information presented through a global lens…A persuasive, if provocative, polemic tackling an important subject.”
—Kirkus Reviews

“A YA adaptation of a controversial missive on climate activism that encourages drastic measures to save the planet’s-and this generation’s-future. It focuses on why past movements haven’t been sufficient to change the tide in environmental justice; nonviolence and civil disobedience are just not enough.”
—School Library Journal

“I would recommend Fighting in a World on Fire to any young activist looking to learn more about the climate movement. It serves a great purpose as an introductory book into not only the world of the climate movement, but also reading political books in general.”
—Dylan Williams, Socialist Worker
