Our very popular book giveaway is back this year. We'll be hiding copies across our libraries and sharing clues about where to find them on our Instagram Stories. Follow us on Instagram @uwelibrary for your chance to win a book.

About We have a dream by Myra-Rose Craig

This book looks at 30 young environmental activists from areas on the forefront of global change and the dreams they have for the future. All of them are either people of colour or Indigenous people and typically underrepresented with the environmental movement. But now their voices are being heard.
