Welcome to Litsy!

I read this to my class today - what a sweet story. It made me think of the #naturalitsy group on here because this is like We Are the ARK for kids.

3 ⭐If Julian wasn‘t the son of rockstars, I‘m not sure he would have gotten this book published. The book is fine. It‘s very similar to Press Here. Except in this instance, they‘re in a plane going to different places on earth. Each place has an issue. It could be pollution in the water driving the fish away, a desert that needs irrigation to grow crops, etc. In this book, I like the illustrations better than I like the story.

“If carbon dioxide were a pizza, then we are expecting the Earth to eat a whole pie rather than just one slice.“

I could see this book used in a later elementary classroom where the book is read as a read aloud and then students choose a topic from the book that they want to complete a project and presentation on. That way, it is a topic they are interested in and also they can share their research with their peers.

Nonfiction- “The Down-to-Earth Guide to Global Warming“ is a kid-friendly book that explains the issue of climate change in a clear and engaging way. It explores the causes, consequences, and solutions to global warming, using humor, illustrations, and real-world examples that relate to children's lives.
The book accurately highlights the impact of human activities on the environment, such as the burning of fossil fuels in a kid friendly way

“I need your help to stay awesome.”

This book would make a great whole classroom lesson on the environment and how we can be environmentally friendly to keep it safe.
