Tracking Trash : flotsam, jetsam, and the science of ocean motion

 

It's not a picture book for children, but it's only 56 pages long, has lots of pictures, and tells a disturbing story about our oceans.

Good afternoon, everyone.

I am a high school librarian (9-12) and have an environmental science teacher asking for a solid list of 15 or more titles of kids picture books. She needs them to be environmentally themed, preferably non-fiction or fiction to tell about a real event or issue. She already adores:

One Plastic Bag: Isatou Ceesay and the Recycling Women of Gambia by Miranda Paul

Energy Island by Allan Drummond

 

I have already added the following to the list as I’ve read them to my 7 and 3 year old and love them:

Curious Garden by Peter Brown

Letting the Swift River Go by Jane Yolen

Our Tree Named Steve by Alan Zweibel

Miss Rumphius by Barbara Cooney

The Great Kapok Tree by Lynne Cherry

A River Ran Wild by Lynne Cherry

Tree: a little story about big things by Danny Parker

The boy who harnessed the wind by William Kamkwamba (picture book version)

 

Based on the above criteria, would you recommend anything else? Would you take any off this list? Picture books are not my strength so I appreciate any help I can get.

 

Thanks in advance and have a lovely rest of your Wednesday.
