I feel like every AP Government teacher should make this required reading to understand capitalism??? Deceptively powerful and moralistic, but in a necessary and meaningful way. Climate conscious book.

Two Islands by Ivan Gantschev is a short story about two islands that are vastly different in how they affect the environment. The story focuses on how corporate greed may change the nature of the island. The story addresses environmental issues effectively by displaying the fate of "Graynel". This story is similar to The Lorax by Dr.Seuss. The Lorax
