Content

Environmental protection is an important topic for us all, and this book is a wonderful way for children to gain appreciation and respect for nature. Why is it important to conserve water and electricity? Why are forests essential for our climate? How can we gain energy from wind, water and the sun? What are environmentally friendly alternatives to driving everywhere in cars? How can we generate less trash, and what happens to all the garbage we do produce after garbage trucks take it away? The exploration concludes with simple yet creative ways children themselves can take small but meaningful actions to be good stewards of our environment.

About the Series

The WWW series stands out for its playful, enticing way of conveying just the information that kids want to know. Centered on who-what-how questions, the titles in the series explore subjects of great interest to young children. The thousands of questions children ask daily are answered by means of interactive elements, engaging illustrations, and age-appropriate texts. Because the lively illustrations convey so much, the books hold children's interest even without an adult to read the clear, friendly texts. WWW is ideally suited for preschool and kindergarten ages, for children 4 to 7 years old.
