The Sunshine Project (Paperback)

Anil loves karate, his friends and the solar power project he has been championing in his community. He doesn't love having to speak up―as his karate sensei says, best fight, no fight. Still, Anil wishes his classmate Mohan would stop picking on him.

Then Anil learns where the city is planning to build a new solar panel factory. More sustainable energy is good news―but this factory will threaten the mangrove forests that have protected the coast for centuries, and spoil the lives of the fisherfolk. Staying quiet isn't an option anymore . . .

A project in school makes Anil start asking questions about the factory. With help from his friends Yasmin and Reeni, and family and the community, can Anil help the city find a solution that works for everyone? And just how loudly will he have to speak up?
