3.0

Poetic and beautifully illustrated books about the Everglades history in a way that makes children care about protecting it. The message is definitely that today's children need to grow up and make a difference. The book makes that seem an easy task.

For English teachers: the author lists all of the previous inhabitants of the Everglades in abundance with just about every synonym for "many" that exists. I see this as a great tool for teaching writing to younger children.
