In 2021, the Global Water Partnership-Caribbean (GWP-C) launched its first-ever children’s book titled “Saving Water: The Journey of Two Caribbean Kids to Understanding Water Security” –which is currently available on Amazon in both kindle (e-book) and paperback versions.
Though the book is generally targeted at children between the ages of 9 – 12 years old, it takes children or any reader, on an educational adventure. The book follows the main characters, 10-year old twins Janelle and Joel from Grenada and their parents, as they journey to fifteen (15) Caribbean countries to observe their main water issues and possible solutions, with the twins being empowered to become Water Changemakers.
The book is co-authored by GWP-C and Grenadian author and artist Kwamina Brizan-Arnaud, who also did the brilliant illustrations in the publication.
