Review Quotes:

"Readers interested in water justice and youth activism will be fully invested in Pondville's struggles with safe drinking water." ---School Library Journal

"A queer teen confronts the messy realities of activism and family in this sobering [...] exploration of accountability, advocacy, and hope."
--PW reviews

"A nuanced take on protest culture, perfect for fans of morally grey characters, complicated dilemmas, and messy family dynamics, with a teen activist who is as deep, complex, and potentially toxic as the water problems that plague his town."
--Elias Cold, author of Selkies & Skeptics

" For the Greatest Good explores questions of environmental justice in a searingly honest way, with a protagonist you can't help but love. For a deep dive into the safe drinking water crisis plaguing many towns, look no further."
--Karen Myna Cantor, author of Alex, By Proxy

"A nuanced, character-driven reflection on community, integrity, and long-term commitment." -- Kirkus Reviews
