How to Deal with Climate Change
KIDS’ BOOK CHOICE AWARDS finalist!
All the Feelings Under the Sun is a timely, thoughtful book that will help kids work through your feelings of anxiety and stress relating to climate change.
Kids will get an expert understanding of the science behind climate crisis, plus engage with lots of do-able self-guided activities, journaling prompts, and useful resources. Readers will also hear about other kids around the world who have made a difference that just may inspire them to practice eco-justice and combat global climate injustice themselves, by putting their own eco-values into action.
All the Feelings Under the Sun is bound to help kids find just want they need to manage stress, anxiety, and all those big emotions about climate, the environment, and ecosystems, and become better equipped to take an eco-wise approach to life and make their own part of the world a little healthier and happier, too. Kids will discover all the ways that nature is beautiful, powerful, delicate, fierce, mysterious, and awesome, but also learn how rising temperatures are affecting everything—plants, animals, people, and the environment—and what they can do about it.

Reviews
School Library Journal
“A cross between an emotional support workbook and a climate change science primer. . . . For students interested in environmental issues and climate change, as well as the emotions that these topics stir up, this may be just the book they need. Some of the exercises included are aimed at helping kids reflect on grief, gratitude, and empathy; they also encourage kids to pause to reflect, breathe, and spend time outdoors.”—School Library Journal
Kirkus Reviews
“Learning about climate change can arouse all kinds of feelings, but there are ways to cope with them and to use them productively . . . . Includes numerous exercises designed to help kids recognize their feelings and “build emotional resilience.” . . . Concepts like eco-grief, systemic racism, negativity bias, and window of tolerance are set in boldface and defined both in context and in a helpful glossary. . . . An interesting and unusual approach to eco-awareness for tweens and teens.”—Kirkus Reviews
