Energy Island: How One Community Harnessed the Wind and Changed Their World

40 pp. | Farrar/Foster | March, 2011 | Trade ISBN 978-0-374-32184-0 $16.99
(3) K-3 On Samsø, an island "in the middle of Denmark...in the middle of the sea," the inhabitants decided to "harness the wind" and become as energy-independent as possible. Drummond's vignette illustrations perfectly capture the community spirit as the Danes realize their dream. Helpful sidebar information expands the science introduced in the descriptive first-person narrative.
