In Composting: Nature's Recyclers, Robin Koontz has created an eye-catching book for young people that explains the process of composting, a form of recycling. The book introduces the young reader, visually and in words, to the natural process of how nature converts plant and animal material to organic compost. Side notes on every other page provide "fun facts" for the learner. Readers can relate to the composting process when they see leaves in the fall become the end product in the spring. The author includes a hands-on composting lesson, a good glossary, and additional references for parents and teachers, for further exploration. This is definitely a resource book for the classroom, as well as a book for parents to use with their children.
Dead leaves, food scraps, and grass clippings for lunch? Small animals, fungi, and bacteria called decomposers turn trash into a tasty compost treat. Learn more about compost and how you can use it in your garden or yard.
