Why do we do all these things? Because we love the world. A beautiful picture book with bright illustrations that every child can understand through pictures. For each topic, there are two illustrations, where the child can understand what is good and what is bad. When you lift a portion of the page, a suggestion is seen. For instance, the picture of a trash can is lifted up to reveal a reminder to throw away trash accompanied by an explanation for why that action is important.
Simple and empowering, this book offers great advice for the next generation. It would be a good book to read to young children on Earth Day to make them understand what they can do to improve the world.
