They return to the present and launch an international kids' crusade to save the planet from the same toxic gases threatening the life of Jamie's little sister. </p><p>Insisting that the U. S. lead the world in changing the future, Jamie and his close pals team up with a maverick U.S. senator on a controversial environmental bill, fight the fossil fuel industry, and counter Washington backroom politics. But things are often not how they seem, and what the youths experience shocks them all.</p><p>This magical realism, cli-fi tale tracks an improbable activist as he and his millions of global followers race against time to beat the forces starting to imperil the human race. This is also a story about the power of sibling love and the discovery of a power much greater than that.</p><p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><strong>Readers' Favorite Five Star Reviews: </strong></p><p>"Timely and driven by an urgent message, <em>Tying the Leaves: </em>A Novel by June Toher is a powerful narrative that will appeal to both young and adult readers; a science fiction story that combines time travel and environmental themes to castigate a political setting that is robbing the young of a future that belongs to them ...
