This book is incredibly timely, capturing the frustration that many young teens feel today. The fact that kids across the world are protesting climate change today is proof that there is a thirst for activism, and a book like What Makes Us will help them process those feelings and ultimately help them to channel them more effectively. Eran learns that while anger is an important tool that can be used for good, it is not the only tool available and not the first one he should reach for.
