Description
Anna Du
An inspiring first-person account of a contemporary middle school girl tackling a global environmental problem through engineering
Microplastics—the broken down byproduct of plastic items we toss out every day—are choking our oceans. But middle-schooler Anna Du is on the case! Now a top science fair winner, Anna shares her account of how she went from worrying about the environment to designing award-winning solutions. Writing for kids her own age, Anna alerts her readers to the threat of microplastics pollution and urges them to care about the environment. She leads them through the frustrating-yet-rewarding process of design, engineering, and invention. This book could inspire a generation of inventors and engineers!

This book has made my child aware of the threats of plastics around and has made her think of ways to avoid them and encourage other kids too. And also think of innovative ways to dispose them. She’s only ten, so some of the engineering part was over her head, but she thinks it’s cool that a girl did this project, so I hope it will inspire her in years to come!
