Review
“The collaboration started from a sign…But it was that, that led Carter to the author of the sign, student activist/community scientist Stella Bowles. Carter attended presentations Bowles made about straight pipes taking household waste, or “poop” as Bowles called it, into the river. Bowles’ activism over the straight pipes is succeeding in cleaning up the LaHave River, through a tri-government program to replace the pipes with septic systems.” (Karen Janigan Lighthouse Now 2018-03-21)
“While My River does include some of the features of non-fiction … it is the text of Stella Bowles’s story of helping to put a stop to polluting practices on the LaHave River that carries the tale. It’s the small steps in learning and discovery that make My River an exemplar of activism by young people with the message that, with perseverance and science, while looking in your own backyard, you can help change the world.” (Helen Kubiw CanLit for Little Canadians 2018-08-23)
“My River is told with honesty, humility and the love of discovery. Teachers will want this book in their classrooms for its messages of empowerment, confidence and scientific application.” (Mable’s Fables 2018-09-27)
