- The sunshine project / by Krishnaswami, Uma.; Swaney, Julianna.;
Anil loves karate, his friends and the solar power project he has been championing in his community. He doesn't love having to speak up - as his karate sensei says, best fight, no fight. Still, Anil wishes his classmate Mohan would stop picking on him. Then Anil learns where the city is planning to build a new solar panel factory. More sustainable energy is good news -- but this factory will threaten plant and animal species and force the village people who live on the land to move. Maybe staying quiet isn't an option anymore... A class assignment nudges Anil into action. Now he's a Young Reporter, so why not ask questions about the factory? With help from his friends Yasmin and Reeni, support from his classmates and neighbors, and the right book picks from Book Uncle, can Anil help the city find a solution that works for everyone? And just how loudly will he have to speak up?- Subjects: Karate; Solar power plants; Journalists; City planning; Courage;
