BROOKLYN, NY, UNITED STATES, June 23, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Global Game Changers: 50 Stories of Impact and Innovation, the debut book by Stuyvesant High School junior Yana Bijoor, has earned three international book honors.

The self-published collection profiles 50 social entrepreneurs and innovators working to solve real problems around the world. Written from a high school student’s perspective, the book introduces readers, especially other young people, to these founders and their ideas.

The Nautilus Book Awards honor books that support conscious living, green values, wellness, social change, and social justice.
