This book about living in a green city combines text similar to Mr. Rogers talking and images from Richard Scarry. It has fun things to look for on each page and great ideas and talking points for living green. ( ) This picture book provides the reader with images of an environmentally sustainable city. Each double spread is a colorful watercolor, pen and ink drawing, depicting a busy part of the city. Focuses are transportation, water, energy, food growing and preparing, working, learning in a green classroom, the building of a new home, places to explore, and having a street party. Text is simple and sparse. On the left, a few short sentences describe the focus of the image and on the right, a question encourages the reader to engage with the image. In the second last spread, the accompanying image and text bubbles show many ways to make a place green. It motivates me to try out these many ideas. I am looking forward to sharing this book with elementary school classes, even though of my five books, no class has yet picked this one. I am not sure why. It is very attractive and full of good ideas. Reviewed by Katharina (Tina) Hausen Edited by Thien Sa Hoang Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

"Welcome to our green city! You'll find flowers, trees, animals... and wind turbines, electric cars, and solar panels, too. In this city, a utopian imagination of what a sustainable community could look like, neighbours from diverse backgrounds come together to care for their surroundings and one another. As readers are invited on a journey through the city, they learn about what makes it environmentally friendly, from electric transportation to green classrooms to community gardens. With an encouraging tone that's never didactic, the text asks questions to encourage readers to find small details: butterflies fluttering by, birds sipping nectar from flowers, and all the ways people work together to take care of the community. The uniquely positive depiction of how city life could look in the future is complemented by backmatter that shares some common environmentally friendly ideas kids can try out at home. This uplifting picture book celebrates sustainability and community and encourages kids to think about what their ideal green city might look like."-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
