This book teaches children about what Earth Day is all about. Three children try to save 5,000 cans in order to buy some flowers for a nearby park. ( )

Earth Day is on the way, and Ryan, Luke, and Carly have a plan. If they manage to collect and recycle 5,000 aluminum cans, they can make enough money to buy some beautiful flowers for nearby Gilroy Park.

CAN they do it?

Counting the cans gives Ryan, Luke, and Carly -- along with readers -- a lesson in place value. And facts about recycling throughout the story will help readers understand how important it is to take care of the earth.

Really more about math than Earth Day, which made the book not fit what I needed for the day. ( )
