This autobiographical account of growing up on the California coast will set young hearts alight for ocean conservation.
Growing up on the beaches of the West Coast, author K. Mason developed a deep appreciation for the restorative power of nature and humanity's responsibility to protect and preserve its natural resources. An autobiographical account of her upbringing, A Slightly Larger Than Average Heart is the story of a little girl whose love for nature sets her apart from most people. With a not-so-average heart, she can hear the ocean speak. And when the ocean asks for her help, she is happy to oblige. But the ocean is vast, so she asks others to help. Met with only laughter, she isn't fazed, and with high hopes, she searches for a fire to heal the ocean. But when she returns to the beach and finds she is the only one there, she realizes that her love alone can't save the ocean. Can she find another with a heart like hers?
As the devastating effects of climate change grow ever more transparent and the future of our planet remains uncertain, now is the time to act. Inviting readers on a journey of exploration along the California coastline, Mason reminds us of our vital role as stewards of nature while encouraging children to take an interest in ocean conservation.
