"[This] charming book provides examples and sends the message that citizens aren't born but are made by actions taken to help others and the world they live in."

This is a book about what citizenship—good citizenship—means to you, and to us all:
Across the course of several seemingly unrelated but ultimately connected actions by different children, we watch how kids turn a lonely island into a community—and watch a journey from what the world should be to what the world could be.
What Can a Citizen Do
? is the latest collaboration from the acclaimed behind the bestselling
Her Right Foot
: Dave Eggers and Shawn Harris.
For today's youngest readers about what it means to be a citizen and the positive role they can play in society.
Includes beautiful illustrations and intriguing, rhyming text.
