Summary:

"Climate anxiety touches nearly everything we do, but perhaps nothing so tenderly as our parenting. What do we do with the fear, grief, and anger we feel? Parent and activist Lydia Wylie-Kellermann wrestles with these questions and argues that while the future remains unknown, we can still join our children in the beauty and hope of the struggle"-- Provided by publisher.
