I have written about Innovative Kids’ books before as I am an admirer of the quality of information their books are able to communicate to children through simple and entertaining stories. Green Start is a series of books aimed to young children to gently introduce them to green living by understanding the importance of the natural environment. The simple drawings appeal to children who discover page by page how we are all interconnected with everything around us. One Tree is the story of one tree that grows in the meadow, which at first impressions might look lonely, but observing the tree and the life around it, kids discover there is a whole world that depends from that one tree from the insects nibbling on its leaves to the birds with their home in its branches. Other books in the series tackle the issue of endangered species like Baby Animals, while Little Helpers is about small daily things we can do that can make a difference in helping our planet.

Furthermore this earth-friendly series is made from 98% post-consumer recycled materials and is printed with eco-friendly ink. Each book in the series has a parent spread at the back to incorporate earth friendly habits at home.
