(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Brian Floca. Marty's school is embarking on projects to save the planet. With her friend, Annie, and her Grandma Barb ("the cool one"), she creates a worm composting project for the school cafeteria--but her classmates are overeager to feed the worms. Marty's spunky personality shines in this charming prototypical elementary school tale. Accompanying black-and-white drawings cheerfully reflect the antics.
