Book Review
It has inspired me to make more changes and be more eco-friendly
Pizazz, the main character of this book, is an inspiring role model and throughout the book raises awareness about climate change, plastic, and littering. This is not just a super fun comic with action and super heroes, it also helps the reader by suggesting things to help the environment, things that I did not even know could help prevent climate change.
I would recommend it to kids over seven years old. This story has a great moral that even if you are small you are mighty and could change the world and save our planet. It has inspired me to make more changes and be more eco-friendly.
I have enjoyed reading this not just because of the text but the illustrations really brought the book to life and helped me to visualize the characters and story line all throughout the book. Altogether this is an excellent book and I highly recommend it.
