Of course, this book has a happy ending that's not very realistic in our current political and social climate. But it's still important for a book like this to exist because it provides an important springboard for talking to kids about climate change. It also points out that although Greta was the catalyst, she's far from the only person fighting the good fight. Greta and the Giants is a delightful children's book that's filled with vivid illustrations and a very empowering message. Much like the real-life Greta, no one is too young or too small to make a difference in the world. As long as someone is willing to try very hard and has a lot of passion about a specific topic, they can get others to notice them.

I like Greta as a character as she shows everyone that even if you are small you can still stand up against the giants if it's something you believe in and want a chance to make a change. The information and tips at the end are perfect to get children looking further into climate change and a nice way to end the book. The storytelling here is quite good, given the audience. Greta and the Giants introduces young readers to the concepts of activism, conservation, and climate change action in an easily digestible fashion. The story, while not too complex gets its point across quite succinctly. Find out about habitat loss around the world. How is it affecting the plants, animals and people living in the area? This story is inspired by the young climate change activist, Greta Thunberg. It is a powerful story that resonates with the current challenges facing the planet. Although this story has a happy ending, the notes at the end of the book explain to readers that Greta in the real world needs your help. It gives examples of things children (and adults) can do to help make a difference. This is an absolutely gorgeous picture book inspired by Greta Thunberg and her fight against climate change and the institutions that will not change to save this world.I'd much rather read a book to children (and for myself) that talk about what we can do right now to help. Whether that be simply reminding children to turn off the lights, recycle, re-use toys, etc. I want a book that will help with both education of the issues, and making children feel heard. Complaining in the streets, in this case, isn't going to help. We don't need a drastic change in government worldwide; what we need are affordable solutions. So far there are very few of those around. So let's make our kids want to help and get engaged in the STEM initiatives behind what causes climate change and maybe the future generation can help us figure out what to do. All around the forest, animals are worried about their home. Nearby, giants have been chopping down trees in the forest to make space for roads, factories and large houses. The smoke and pollution is destroying the habitat of the animals and its beauty though. The animals turn to Greta for help. In this story Greta sees how the giants have been destroying the forest around her house and decides to protest in hopes of getting the attention of the giants and convince them to stop. This allegorical story is aimed at 4-7-year olds: the simple, descriptive language and bright, colourful pictures will really capture the imagination of this age group. The story is told just as much through the pictures as through the text.

Greta and the Giants is a tale about a girl named Greta who has to help the animals of the forest protect their environment from Giants who cause harm unknowingly. The book is inspired by real climate change activist, and teen, Greta Thurnberg. Greta and the Giants is an endearing picture book inspired by the environmental activist Greta Thunberg. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this offering to introduce children to the international impact just one small voice can have when combined with resilience, belief and determination.The illustrations are quite cute, very colourful and charming. I like the animals with their protest signs. The whole thing is a great starting point for teaching young children about the climate change fight and what some people are doing to try to avoid a planetary catastrophe. It might be too political for some, but it's an important message that everyone needs to hear, whether they agree with it or not. I know this is going to be an unpopular opinion; but I think it's important that I say it regardless. This is a nice allegorical story about Greta Thunberg's activism and leadership on climate change. In this narrative, governments and industry are represented by giants who destroy the environment, leaving the animals fearing for their future. Nobody wants to do anything because everybody is afraid of standing up to the giants. Everybody except Greta, that is. She starts by herself, but is soon joined by others, until there are so many that their complaints can no longer be ignored.

Greta lives in the heart of a beautiful forest where she is friends with the animals who also live there. However, Giants (humans) are destroying their home, so the animals beg Greta for help. The Giants are portrayed as the destructors of the forest, taking more and more trees in their greed and desire to build more and more. There is a stark contrast between the bright and colourful images of the forest and the darkness and ugliness of the city.
