Kids see things differently.

Solutions to problems are one big idea away. “What if” is an enthusiastic refrain! And expressing yourself means making art, and asking ALL of the questions!

If you’re an older kid who’s forgotten what that drive, that passion, that confidence feels like, all you have to do is keep listening!

Today, you’re gonna meet eight young people who think and act BIG in this swirling, chaotic, beautiful, beastly world.
