What parents and grandparents are saying:

Great simple books to explain to young children why recycling is important. A must have for any preschool or kindergarten classroom. Simple information on recycling that can make a big impact. Well written and good illustrations. Wanted to find children's books on recycling and the environment to give to the local grade schools. These are the winner! This is a great book as an introduction to recycling. I read this book to my first graders to help them understand recycling and the importance of recycling to protect Earth. At a level that all students can understand. Colorful pictures and information on how and why recycling is important. Younger students can relate to the children in the book, that they too can participate in the recycling process.
