Notes:
"Changemaker series."
Summary:
Summer is only a month away, but things aren't going according to plan for fifteen-year-old Nick Bannerman. Nick dreams of making it big in music, and summer
means
scoring a deal for his band,
mega
parties, surfing in Tofino -- and not much else. His best friend, Trevor, wants him to spend the summer with him in Africa building a school with a changemaker organization, but Nick isn't at all interested. Unlike Trevor, Nick has no interest in global activism, volunteering, or physical labour. So how does a teen like Nick, intent on being a famous rock star, end up in Thailand volunteering at an elephant refuge?
Meanwhile
in Africa, Trevor learns about Kenyan culture and language from twelve-year-old Kito, and encounters child soldiers who threaten the young boy's family. Back at the refuge, Nick
meets
sixteen-year-old Camila, an intimidating and determined girl who wants to be a mahout, even though local tradition won't allow it. When Nick encounters an extreme animal rights activist, drugged tigers, and rampaging elephants, will he have the courage to act and care about more than just himself?
