Kindergarten-Grade 2-- An introduction to recycling and ecology that tries to cover too much territory. Krull's focus shifts around too often for it to be a meaningful book for beginning readers; the tone and Greenberg's illustrations are too young for older readers. However, this could be very useful as an idea starter or discussion book in classrooms. There is a good list of activities for children to do by themselves. Especially useful are suggestions for conserving energy by changing habits and thinking before acting. The bright, cheerful illustrations show multiethnic children in a variety of situations. This could be used nicely in conjunction with Frederick Lehrman's Loving the Earth (Celestial Arts, 1990) or any of the catalogues available on ways to save the Earth.
