After relinquishing my career as a clinical researcher to work in a library (and serve as an Uber driver for my children), I have encountered many reluctant readers, especially boys, looking for something more challenging than the Magic Tree House series.

    Hushpuppy is a child living in a geographically isolated and economically forgotten marshland community in Lousiana. She is a little girl who deals with a dying father, a homeland by a changing climate, and unfamiliar trauma wrought by both nature and a well-intentioned but ultimately clueless modern society. Along with her father, Hushpuppy lives in a ramshackle home surrounded by neighbors who largely live off the land and recycled modern refuse. Hushpuppy envisions beasts of ages past as both a coping mechanism and a way for her child’s mind to explain the shifting, uncertain world around her. In her largely uneducated or informally educated community, only one adult seems aware of the full implications of climate change on their floodplain home.…
