Grateful to be involved with the UNICEF Leading Minds Climate Education Fellowship and to learn from young climate leaders shaping the future of climate education.

As someone who collected coins for UNICEF as a child and once imagined working in service of children and the planet, this feels like a hashtag#FullCircleMoment. A meaningful opportunity and a reminder of how important it is to support young people in caring for the world theyโ€™ll inherit.

โ€œWritten with wit, warmth, and hilarious charm, Brianโ€™s words pair perfectly with Jenniferโ€™s calming and grounding earth-toned art. She beautifully balances the quiet hush of the woods with the joyful, party-fueled chaos inside Bearโ€™s den. Together, they offer something especially meaningful for children growing up in a digital worldโ€”a gentle invitation to slow down, look closely, and feel the laughter and warmth of the forest. Gehrlein and Harney create pure read-aloud magicโ€”perfect for bedtime, storytime, or any moment that calls for laughter.โ€ โ€” Andrea Koehle Jones, Childrenโ€™s Book Author and Environmental Education Advocate
