(3) K-3 Illustrated by Amy Wummer. In the style of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas," this picture book uses a diverse group of children and adults to show readers various ways to help protect the planet. A week before Earth Day, they all come together and plan. They embrace recycling, biking, and walking and plant a community garden. Then the night before, they dream of a celebratory butterfly release. Wing’s rhyming text would make for a pleasant read aloud, and Wummer’s colorful illustrations enhance the story’s pro-conservation message.
