Each section of this book has a different ecosystem and gives details of the habitat, species that live there, and what people can do to help. It is very organized. There are pretty illustrations, but no real pictures of the environments.

Fifty things YOU can do to save the planet! What about the animals? What kind of habitats are there and what animals live in the different ones? What can kids do to help, even in a wheelchair? What problems were created by people? What does endangered species mean and who are they? There's even a glossary at the end. Great book to help motivate our younger helpers!
The illustrations by Angela Keoghan are imaginative, clear, and delightfully nearly realistic.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, and especially to a school or teacher or your public library!
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Nosy Crow, Inc. via NetGalley. Thank you!

I requested this book because I would like to know how to help a polar bear and I learned that this is a book about how to protect all ecosystems. This book would serve as a good introduction to ecosystems, as it covers forests, deserts, swamps, freshwater, coastlines, oceans, savannahs, jungles and mountains. Beautifully illustrated, each spread shows the eco system with some animals that habit there and some ways you can help. This book helps students see they can be part of the solution to being a friend of their environment.

4.5 stars. This book is extremely informative with pictures that are intriguing and entertaining to look at. I was even shocked and disheartened to discover some of these statistics. I love the way this book is formatted, with each ecosystem being defined and then explaining some of the animals who live there. The tips after each chapter-like portion are feasible and helpful. While the tone of the book seemed to be hopeful, very much with a “you can help” type of mentality, I feel that depending on the age of the child, this information might stress them out. Not even the information specifically, but the parts where it seems that pressure is falling on the child to convince their parents or try to solve this huge problem on their own. Although, I may be reading into it too much, and adding my anxiety into it. I thought that this is an excellent book to teach about climate change and animal endangerment and extinction, all while providing ideas on how you can help.

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. An informative non-fiction book for kids about how you can save both the animals in the dessert and the polar bears in the colder areas. Lots of great information for little kids.

I loved the setup of this book from the spectrum of threat of extinction animals have to the effects of human environment interaction on animals followed by a realistic way kids can help. This will become part of my environmental activism unit.
