Our oldest daughter borrowed this book from her elementary school library and we perused the myriad projects together. The different ways in which children can participate in environmentally friendly activities is unlimited and this book shows how. Some of the projects are more complicated than others and the photographs are very helpful to explain the steps.
I like that our daughter is taking a more proactive stance, especially since I have been trying to teach our girls many of the suggestions in this for years. They have become more supportive of my 'earthy-crunchy' ways now that they see them in a book. Hmmm.... She really likes this book and has borrowed it from her library a couple of times.
