"Nowhere Else on Earth, published by Victoria-based Orca Book Publishers, encourages young readers to think about what future they want to live in," says the author, Caitlyn Vernon. "Depending on our choices and actions, dirty rivers can be cleaned up, sea otters can return to the coast of BC, tanker traffic can be stopped. The book encourages young readers to get informed, get inspired, and get involved.”
