E Is for Environment: Stories to Help Children Care for Their World--at Home, at School, and at Play by Ian James Corlett

3.0

I give it three stars for the facts at the end of each "story". The stories were a little too much for me as an adult reader, but I can see kids who are big into "being green" get into this. The follow up questions were good and since we do a lot with student-lead green initiatives, I will most likely get a copy for the library.

I think this is a great book for parents and their children. More people are realising the importance of going green and to develop green as a lifestyle it's best starting young. The book is a collection of short stories about a brother and sister who are determined to do their part towards becoming environmentally friendly. At the end of each story, there is a tip that you can adapt to your own situation and household and questions to encourage discussion between the parent and the child. There are also facts about the environment as well as quotations from many different people. The facts and quotations correspond to the stories they follow.
