NOT A REVIEW - but a noteworthy pagination notation:

The reasoning for the pagination in this book is pretty tough to comprehend. The first numbered page is page 6 (a verso page). This would make page 5 (a recto page) the first page in the book. if you continue to count down and move past the front end paper to the cover, THEN you would be at page #1... as intended by the publisher. With that said, I counted the rear end papers and the rear cover as well. doing this gives on a tally of 80 pages. I had an amazingly wonderful friend once tell me that every book should have a total page count that is divisible by eight, and in this book eighty works out great.

Although not a highly informative work, this book would still be useful in the classroom as a resource for ideas of kid's projects. The projects are relatively simple, yet seem like something fun that kids could do while also learning a little about how they can help improve the environment. It is not a great source of information, but it does work as a launch-pad to get kids thinking and doing. Also, the back of the book offers more resources for students to look up if they wish to learn more.
