The book is also honoured to be introduced in Swedish Representative Anders Wollter’s video, which is recorded for National Museum of Taiwan Literature’s special campaign – “Share SDGs-themed stories from your country.” The book is selected as one of children’s books from Sweden to help spread the knowledge of sustainability and renewable energy.
“Our Hidden Powers” is a fun and engaging way to teach children about renewable energy. Originally published by Baseload Capital, the book provides a light-hearted and fun-filled way to spread the knowledge of renewable energy and the importance of collaboration. Also, with the charming character, Ignis and her friends, the book aims to create meaningful memories and discussions between children and the adults in their lives and inspire them to explore their own advantages and hidden powers.
