4-6Helping Our Planet series.
Brief paragraphs give basic explanations of some environmental issues: pollution, climate change, refuse disposal, and endangered wildlife. Also included are various sidebars ("You Choose," "What Can Be Done?") that ask oversimplified opinion questions or offer vague answers. Photos showing the problems (overfull garbage dumps) and some solutions (recycled-material handbags) fill much of the space. Websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Helping Our Planet titles: Animal Rescue, Pollution, Waste and Recycling, and Weather.
