Hope on the Horizon by Onjali Q Raúf
*** 'Every child should read this' *** - Amazon review Bestselling children's author and human rights campaigner Onjali Raúf invites young readers to discover everything there is to know about kindness, empathy, friendship and fighting for the things that matter. (Not to mention cool things like using our inbuilt X-ray vision and detecting negative forces!) With the help of her favourite fictional characters (from She-Ra to Superman), some of the inspiring people she has been honoured to work with, and a few of her biggest inspirations (from Frederick Douglas to Malala Yousafzai), Onjali motivates budding young activists, showing them that no one is too small to make a difference. Because with a bit of compassion, a big dollop of hope and even the smallest act of kindness, magical things can happen. Hope is on the horizon; here's how children everywhere can find it . . .
This inspiring guide to empathy, kindness and creating a better world from the author of The Boy At The Back Of The Class offers advice, food for thought and stories of people who are making a difference, including Greta Thunberg and Malala Yousafzai-- Charlotte Heathcote * Daily Mirror *

I have been lucky enough to work in the world of children's publishing for the last 6 years and have had a lot of fun meeting all the talented writers, designers and editors who I get to work with.
