Reviews

[Rowe]

Story of Rubbish starts like a fable (Long, long ago.....) but it is no fairy tale. A great introductory book for kids who have just been taught waste recycling. Funny illustrations to keep the kids amused while they understand the (less funny) consequences of irresponsible waste.
My seven year old says,

It might be the best book I ever read! :D I love this book because it teaches other children how they can be heroes to save the earth by not making waste when you do not have to,do more recycling and the 3 Rs :D

This book made me want to become a hunter/gatherer.
