Sunday, we celebrate Earth Day. See Popular Characters Celebrate Earth Day and the Environment for several recommended picture books and beginning reader books for children ages 2-8. Older children and young teens will appreciate Kakapo Rescue: Saving the World's Strangest Parrot, a fascinating nonfiction book, which is part of the excellent Scientists in the Field series. One of the most popular children's books about caring for the environment is The Lorax by Dr. Seuss, a picture book that appeals to a wide range of ages.

I love this post and love Earth Day, too! Please take a look at my award winning picture book THIS TREE COUNTS! and my new book, THESE BEES COUNT!, (Albert Whitman & Co.) Both books celebrate our Earth and taking care of our planet.
