Praise for The Teen Guide to Global Action


The Teen Guide to Global Action by Barbara A. Lewis is the perfect little book to hand to a motivated teenager who wants to make a difference. Hip, up to date, and easy to read . . . this book would be a great research reference for a geography or civics class and very useful to a high school environment or social issues club.”—Green Teacher

“This book belongs in the hands of every student who wants to change the world.Benjamin Quinto, founder and executive director, Global Youth Action Network (GYAN)

The Teen Guide to Global Action by Barbara A. Lewis tells the story of teen activists like Zach Hunter, who started Loose Change to end modern slavery; Janine Licare, who is helping to stop the destruction of rain forests; and Zhura Bahman, who started a foundation in her native Afghanistan to help girls with education.Teaching Tolerance

“An excellent starting point for the many youth who want to turn their social concerns into social change.”—Silvia Blitzer Golombek, Ph.D., senior vice president, Youth Service America (YSA)

“Worldwide, young people are making positive changes by taking action. Their stories and dozens more are collected in one book that will inspire readers and provide them with tools they can use to take action themselves.”—Association of Booksellers for Children, ABC Toolbox

The Teen Guide to Global Action is an exciting new book that features stories of youth from over 30 countries who are making a difference and taking action on local and global issues. The book includes a rich and varied menu of opportunities for service, fast facts, hands-on activities, user-friendly tools, and up-to-date resources kids can use to put their own volunteer spirit into practice.”—Minnesota Alliance for Youth
