Good To Know: A New Green Hero
September/October 2008
By Kim Wallace
Set in the make-believe town of Abberdoo-Rimey, Michael Recycle, by Ellie Bethel and Alexandra Colombo (Worthwhile Books, 2008), is the story of a green-caped crusader who teaches residents—and your child—how to take care of their trash-ridden town. This colorful, poetic storybook conveys the message of “reduce-reuse-recycle” to children as young as 3. Clever go-green tips encourage children to conserve energy and take care of the earth.
