Colorful, mixed-media illustrations will draw kids into this lively exploration of a dirty topic: compost! This succinct volume explains how to turn trash into treasure for the garden: “Recycling trash is one way a green gardener protects Earth.” Pointing out the environmental and practical benefits of compost versus commercial fertilizers, the book encourages children to recycle carbon- and nitrogen-rich waste. Detailed directions clearly explain how to build a compost bin, what (and what not) to compost, how to effectively layer materials, and how to keep the soil alive. Also included are group and individual compost research projects, a glossary, a link to publisher-selected Web sites, and an index.
