An empowering and inspirational book of tales of 29 children doing amazing things within their sphere of influence. From environmental activist, Greta Thunberg of Sweden, Malala Yousafzai, Pakistani, Phiona Mutesi, the chess master from Uganda, the boy who harnessed the wind, William Kamkwamba of Malawi, and many others who surmounted challenges and achieved greatly.

Persistence, grit and perseverance!!!
