Aspiring activist Sylvie Schwartz dreams of saving the world. If only the world would cooperate. This series will appeal to kids who want to make a difference, dream big and want to do great things. (It will also appeal to anyone who loves ice cream sundaes or sweet slobbery puppies.) No matter what gets in Sylvie's way, readers will cheer for Sylvie to succeed, project after project. When faced with the possible closing of her favourite beach, Sylvie first attempts a one-person coastal cleanup march on city hall, but thanks to the town clown, she realises it will take more than one person to save the beach.
