NAACP Image Award Nominee

“In a word, stunning.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Through artistic writing and beautiful illustrations, Donna Jo Napoli and Kadir Nelson tell the true story of Wangari Muta Maathai, known as “Mama Miti,” who in 1977 founded the Green Belt Movement, an African grassroots organization that has empowered many people to mobilize and combat deforestation, soil erosion, and environmental degradation. Today, more than 30 million trees have been planted in Mama Miti’s homeland, Kenya, and in 2004 she became the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Wangari Muta Maathai has changed Kenya tree-by-tree—and with each page turned, children will realize their own ability to positively impact the future.
