Sofia Valdez Future Prez

Every morning, Abuelo walks Sofia to school, until one day he hurts his ankle at a local landfill. She decides that the town can turn the landfill into a park. She brainstorms and plans and finally works up the courage to go to City Hall only to be told by a clerk that she can't build a park because she’s just a kid. Sofia is down but not out, and she sets out to prove what one kid can do.

In the newest picture book in the mega-bestselling Questioneers series, Sofia Valdez fights for change and finds her voice as a community leader! Transformed from conscientious schoolgirl to determined social activist in a vibrantly illustrated story of empowerment and community.
