Children Books
Does anyone know any good books I read to my children about environment and green living?

Re: Children Books
The Wilderness Society Environment Award for Children's Literature has some great suggestions  Jeannie Baker has some fabulous books too. Just love 'em. Check out "Where the Forest Meets The Sea" and "Window" "Belonging" Caren Trafford is another In googling her for a link, I found this link filled with more books!

Re: Children Books
Not specifically about the environment or green living, but a great kids book that our family LOVES is "The Black Pot Belly" by Maree Cootes. PotBelly page1

Re: Children Books
The Lorax was one of my favs as a child. It struck a chord with me and I always found it fascinating. I was disappointed when I bought a copy for DD1 and she dismissed it immediately..oh that's boring and it ended up on the bottom of the book basket  Should have expected that I guess. She's a different child than I was. Em
