A Look into Tomorrow is a vibrantly illustrated children's book aimed at young to middle-aged readers ages eight to eleven that introduces the intricate topic of climate change in an inspiring light, by emphasizing solutions to the issue, rather than its consequences. It features a strong female protagonist who enters a Renewable Energy World that exemplifies a world that utilizes primarily fossil fuel free modes of transportation, contains luscious greenery, and is home to content and healthy residents. While a large percentage of the messaging received about our environment is negative, A Look into Tomorrow serves to spark an interest for consideration of the environment and STEM-related fields in our next generation.
