SLJ Review of Saving the World
Intended for beginning learners, this series covers environmentally friendly actions one can make at school, at home, on vacation, and while outside. Topics such as driving less, recycling paper and plastic, reusing or donating used items, and caring for nature are introduced through simple sentences and short paragraphs.
While these topics are common in environmental books, this series has a beautiful graphic layout of photos, text boxes, background colors, and icons that make it stand out. Photos feature racially diverse children performing actions reflected in the text. The attractive pages with well-written, simple text make for a perfect read-aloud.
VERDICT: While this series does not deliver a unique message, it stands out for its beautiful design and engaging text. Purchase where environmental books for young readers are needed.
