The combination of love for animals and climate activism stole my heart in this book about a captive orangutan in Indonesia. Chapters alternate being told from the view points of the 3 main characters: a middle school climate activist, Malia, a fellow student, Ari, and our favorite point of view, that of Ginger Juice, the orangutan. The book introduces the reader to Indonesia and the delicate balance between growing the economy while protecting wildlife and natural habitats.
