this is a very quick but important read! I lost the book when i was half way into it... found it under my bed though thank god because i liked this book and wanted to finish it!
Australias future looks grim but i think we can make some small changes to keep us green and healthy (or sandy and healthy) and this book inspired me to do some charity work for the enviroment!

Alice is determined that her last year of Primary school is going to be the best one ever! But things are not off to a great start: It's only the first week and she already has been given a new nickname (Mothball), she has had to give up her bedroom to her grandma, and she has been assigned Greta Thunberg in the Library writing assignment. Not that she doesn't like Greta, its just she'd rather have a sports star. But Alice is determined that if she is going to do something she is going to do it right! In the process of learning about Greta, Alice learns that she too can make a difference.

A fabulous contemporary Australian story suitable for 9+ age group. Set in multicultural suburban Sydney, with the disruption of Covid-19, and real-world topics of concern from family and friendships to the environment are great themes for mid primary-school age to mid high-school readers.
