Great for teaching kids to be environmentally responsible!

I read this book to my first grade class and they loved it! They enjoyed the fun illustrations and I loved the humerous way that it taught them to think before throwing something away. We started a classroom recycling project after reading this book, at the student's suggestion! I highly recommend this book to any person teaching a child the value of keeping our Earth clean.
The Wartville Wizard-Good story, great lesson

I recently read this book to a five-year-old little boy who absolutely loved the book. He was intrigued by the pictures (especially the lady with the garbage stuck to her rear-end)and kept finding "clues" to how the story would end. He really enjoyed the plot and the humor. The Warville Wizard spurred on great conversations about litter and pollution. The only downfall is that the book doesn't go into why you shouldn't litter other than for the asthetic value of a clean world. But overall, this was a super book.
Excellent.

Great story to use for Earth Day. Humorous. Lends itself to other classroom activites.
