She has been giving kids a voice in their future for 30 years now starting with P3, a short-lived-but-influential environmental magazine she created and published with her erstwhile partner. She hasn't saved the world yet -- and that is a real thorn in her side-- but she's still working on it. Visit her website: www.homeplanetbooks.com
