Save the Planet – FKB Be Nice series book 4

Save the Planet is a short simple book for young children, and beginner ESL readers, promoting values of conservation and ecologically-friendly behaviour.

This book teaches children ten important lessons about conservation and actions that can help preserve and conserve our natural environment and the resources, for those of us, people and animals, who inhabit it. There are suggestions for lessons supporting the topics at the end which can be used for classroom environmental / earth science education for classroom or home school exercises.

Each of the ten lessons in the book is introduced by an animal with a name that uses alliteration, eg Gerty Goat, Wally Walrus. These animals are a feature of Free Kids Books’ life lessons, Be Nice sight words series.
