This series fills a need for accessible books about energy, pollution, and the environment through clear text, cartoony pictures, and suggestions for ways to effect changes in our carbon footprints. The child-narrator voices don't sound authentic and the implication that our environmental problems can be resolved by nagging is simplistic, but kids may be inspired to action.
