How can we make the world a better place? This inspiring resource for middle-grade readers is organized as a dictionary; each entry presents a word related to creating a better world, such as * ally, empathy,or respect *. For each word, there is a poem, a quote from an inspiring person, a personal anecdote from the authors, and a try it prompt for an activity.

This second poetic collaboration from Irene Latham and Charles Waters builds upon themes of diversity and inclusiveness from their previous book * Can I Touch Your Hair? Poems of Race, Mistakes, and Friendship.* Illustrations from Iranian-British artist Mehrdokht Amini offer readers a rich visual experience.
