The heart of Dear Tui, A Warning revolves around Juniper Hawthorne, a young woman whose life unfolds against an encroaching climate crisis. Through deft storytelling, the author has created an evocative story punctuated by the myriad challenges Juniper confronts while navigating the gradual unfolding catastrophe of a planet in flux.

Fast-forward to 2063, and we are transported to a world transformed into a haunting “boggy, colorless, stormy mess.” The atmosphere is eerily recognizable yet increasingly hostile—a stark reminder of the consequences of our actions. This captivating narrative is recounted from Juniper’s unique vantage point as she gives a letter to Tui, her child, at the tender age of nine.

M.C. Ronen, known for harnessing the written word as an instrument of activism, once again channels her narrative prowess to catalyze change. Dear Tui, A Warning urges readers to delve into the implications of our present actions upon the destiny of our planet. Chief among the thematic undertones is the impact of animal agriculture on the escalating climate crisis. Ronen probes the notion of conferring legal personhood upon the animal realm, intertwined with a plea for the embrace of veganism. This call resonates with the overarching motif of environmental stewardship.

The story’s narrative allure is irresistible, each page a siren’s call, weaving an intricate tapestry that intellectually and emotionally envelops the reader. The narrative’s potency is rivaled only by the eloquence of Ronen’s prose.

Dear Tui, A Warning is a compelling call for self-reflection and taking action. I believe people of all ages can benefit from this book, as its messages are timeless. More than just advice, it offers a look at possible futures, urging us to make changes while we still can. It’s definitely worth a read.
