The Adventures of Jamie Jeans
A journey in sustainable fashion for kids
What happens to our clothes when we are finished with them?
The Adventures of Jamie Jeans introduces children to sustainable fashion through the story of Jamie, a pair of jeans with a journey to tell.
Written to make sustainability accessible, engaging and fun, the book invites young readers to think about where clothes come from, how they are made, what happens when we no longer need them, and how our choices can make a difference.
Through storytelling and playful illustrations, Jamie helps children discover that fashion is not simply about what we wear. It is also about materials, resources, creativity, responsibility and the possibilities of giving things a longer life.
Written by Jane Rüsz Scaffidi Abbate and co illustrated by Antonio Arena.
