For picture books, I would also recommend Pedal Power: How One Community Became the Bicycle Capital of the World because it's how activists in Amsterdam used civil disobedience to make it drastically safer for bicyclists, My Wounded Island for how it gives a view from a child personally affected by climate change, and The Tantrum that Saved the World for showing how kids can work in solidarity with people all over the world. For teenager-level books, We Rise: The Earth Guardians Guide to Building a Movement that Restores the Planet is a powerful book that's part autobiography, part activist advice book by the first young person to address the U.N. on climate change, Indigeneous activist, Xiuhtezcatl Martinez.
