![]() Everything Kids' Environment Book: Learn how you can help the environment-by getting involved at school, at home, or at play (Everything Kids Series) $7.95 I picked this book up because I wanted to work on doing some summer learning with my 6 1/2 and 7 year olds. I've only just started going through it and LOVE it! Almost every page has an activity related to what it's teaching. It's not about being an environmentalist, but helps explain our planet so we know how we effect it. It's really well written and fun to go through. Great summer read! ![]() Environment: An Interdisciplinary Anthology $45.00 This book is a compilation of highly readable selections about humans and the natural world. It includes excerpts from the best classic and current writings in the field. I had feared it would be too technical, but it has quickly become one of my favorite reads and reference sources. I'm a resource manager and also teach a survey course in environmental science. It's impossible to be an expert in environmental science, because the world we live in is far beyond our comprehension. As I tell students, studying the environment should be humbling. We earthlings know just enough about the earth to be dangerous, until we learn to manage ourselves and our societies. This volume brings human and technical perspectives on the environment together, from the perpectives of history, anthropology, forestry, agriculture, engineering, theology, biology, medicine and other disciplines. Enjoy! ![]() A Child's Introduction to the Environment: The Air, Earth, and Sea Around Us- Plus Experiments, Projects, and Activities YOU Can Do to Help Our Planet! $19.95 This book has been a terrific hit with my 8 year old niece. She has been putting the stickers all over her home and reminding her parents to be careful with the environment. |
