Description
A citizen can pick up litter. A citizen can pull a weed. A citizen can help that critter. A citizen can plant a seed. A citizen can aid a neighbor. A citizen can join a cause. A citizen can write a letter. A citizen can help change laws . . . Empowering and timeless, What Can A Citizen Do? is the latest collaboration from the acclaimed duo behind the bestselling Her Right Foot : Dave Eggers and Shawn Harris. This is a book for today's youth about what it means to be a citizen. Across the course of several seemingly unrelated but ultimately connected actions by different children, we watch how kids turn a lonely island into a community--and watch a journey from what the world should be to what the world could be. This is a book about what citizenship--good citizenship--means to you , and to us all.
