About this product
Product Information
A beautiful and hopeful story of how a young impassioned naturalist grows up to change the world. For everyone who cares about our fragile planet. "An absolute joy to read." --Book Riot "Gracefully written...pleasing to the eye and ear." -- Kirkus Reviews Rachel was a girl who loved science and the sea, books and writing and all the creatures of the world. Rachel was quiet, a listener by nature. But when she saw problems, she could not remain silent. Some people thought girls shouldn't be scientists. They thought girls shouldn't use their voices to question or challenge, even to protect all the creatures of the world. Luckily Rachel didn't listen to them.

Shipped my graphic novels in a timely manner, it was exactly as described, I bought two so I emailed them about combining shipping. Shipping was $6 ea which is a lot for media mail. They did and refunded me $3. $9 shipping for media mail is still really high. I’ll find my next graphic novel elsewhere.
