Through powerful poems, this book honors neurodivergent youth activists transforming their communities and invites kids to act--continuing the spirit of No Voice Too Small and No World Too Big.

Featuring Billie Eilish, Dara McAnulty, and Ly Xīnzhèn M. Zhangsūn Brown, these fourteen poems spotlight neurodivergent activists inspiring kids ages 5 to 9 to make change.

These fourteen neurodivergent activists began their work when they were young and continue it now, changing systems, politics, policies, and more. The book features poems written by poets who have something in common with each activist.

Fourteen poems by CooXooEii Black, Vanessa Brantley-Newton, e.E. Charlton-Trujillo, Liv Mammone, Lyn Miller-Lachmann, K. A.
