Young children will show interest in what Casey is doing and why he is doing it. Talking people into making this a city wide project is amazing and well done. A wonderful education tool!" - Kindle Customer, Nov. 28, 2017.Printed on recycled paper. From the Author My goal, in writing and illustrating this book, was to introduce children to composting with an inspiring story and to provide a useful, easy-to-understand pictoral chart about how composting works. At the back of the book, the illustrated examples of what can be composted help children get started. Some children don't have a space to compost at home, so, I hope to inspire schools to create composting programs. If more of us learn to compost, perhaps we can keep food waste out of landfills and put it to good use in our gardens. Not only that, but, children who compost can feel proud of the end result: Rich soil and happy plants!
