Description

In this topical picture book, Michael Foreman - twice winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal and described as "the greatest illustrator-storyteller of his time" by Michael Morpurgo - brilliantly shows what climate change is doing to our world and inspires us all to make a difference. Mr World doesn't feel well. He's hot and sweaty and finding it hard to breathe. What will the doctors find when they examine their poor patient?

Reviews

"A highly topical book about the impact of climate change, delivered in a very simple way for very young readers." * The Bookseller * "The message is gently delivered in a way that will make children aware of their responsibility, but also their power to change things. Michael Foreman's illustrations are eloquent as always, and glow with warmth and colour." * Andrea Reece, LoveReading * "This book is perfect for environmentally conscious families and would be particularly useful in schools, for younger classes, to introduce the topic of climate change." * Reading Zone *
