Who on Earth Is Rachel Carson?: Mother of the Environmental Movement

112 pp. | Enslow | October, 2009 | Library ISBN 978-1-59845-116-0 $31.93
(4) 4-6 Scientists Saving the Earth series. These books offer biographical information about environmentalists. The series' focus is uneven; for example, the Carr volume tells much more about sea turtles than about the man himself while the Carson book relies on lengthy excerpts from her writing to highlight her story. Nevertheless, readers will get a sense of the subjects' importance in their fields. Photographs illustrate the texts. Reading list, timeline, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Scientists Saving the Earth titles: Who on Earth Is Jane Goodall?, Who on Earth Is Dian Fossey?, Who on Earth Is Sylvia Earle?, Who on Earth Is Aldo Leopold?, Who on Earth Is Rachel Carson?, and Who on Earth Is Archie Carr?.
