Thank you to NetGalley and Graphic Universe for an ARC. All opinions are my own.

Ultrawild is an incredibly creative, optimistic, and passionate plan to rewild the planet and reverse climate change. The art and designs are super fun and colorful, and there's a ton of real science that is written in a way that children could easily understand. This is definitely the exact kind of book I would have carried around in my backpack for an entire school year back in middle school. I also love how much this book encourages kids to expand on these ideas and explore their own creativity!

Steve Mushin’s Ultrawild is a bold, imaginative vision of rewilding cities through inventive, scientifically plausible solutions. Packed with humor and cutting-edge ideas—from habitat-printing robot birds to compost cannons—this book challenges readers to rethink urban landscapes. With intricate illustrations and a passion for STEM, Mushin inspires creativity while tackling climate change head-on. A must-read for anyone passionate about a greener, wilder future.

Thank you to Lerner Publishing Group and Steve Mushin for the eARC!

This book was so fun and (dare I say) wild! Truly wild ideas and I was impressed with the amount of research the author had done. I feel like I learned a lot about the various aspects of climate change and species loss that we face as well as ideas that would lead to potential solutions. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in climate change and climate change solutions as well as entrepreneurship or engineering (but also to anyone who lives in the world that we live in since we're all facing the same problems of climate change and the associated consequences). Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with a copy of the book to read!
