From the Inside Flap
(back cover)
The three R's teaches us many things we can do to reduce pollution. When we Reduce the number of different things we throw away--such as plastic bags--we help to keep the land where we live clean and the water that we drink fresh. It is also a good idea to Reuse; for example, by finding new uses for hand-me-downs that we might otherwise be tempted to throw away. And we can Recycle things like paper, cans, and bottles by placing them in collection areas where they can be picked up and made into new and useful things. Remembering these three R words is a good way for us to help make our planet a good place to live.

If you're looking for a great resource book for Earth Day or to kick off your school's recycling program, I highly recommend "The Three R's: Reuse, Reduce, Recycle. With Kid friendly examples, simple text, and colorful illustrations it will communicate earth friendly messages to younger school age children. Team it up with "Michael Recycle" for a great environmental unit. Michael Recycle
