| 9780060001292 | Earth Day--Hooray! (MathStart 3) | Murphy, Stuart J. | 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.Sharon Salluzzo - Children's LiteratureThe students from the Maple Street School Save-the-Planet Club were cleaning up Gilroy Park on Earth Day when they realized that if they took the cans to the recycling center they could use the money to purchase flowers for the entrance to the park. They bagged the cans but the park trash collector inadvertently took them to the dump. The students enlisted the entire school and the community and eventually had enough cans to purchase the flowers. This Level 3 book on place value is part of the Math Start series. By using the idea of bags containing ten cans, a hundred cans, and a thousand cans, the reader can visually see how numbers are formed. Scattered throughout the book are mini facts about recycling, such as, In 1999, recycling and composting kept about 64,000,000,000 ((64 billion) tons of trash from ending up in landfills or being burned. The cartoon-style illustrations provide a touch of levity to the math topic. 2004, HarperCollins, Ages 7 to 9. | HarperCollins |

"It's beautiful," she said, but that was not what she was really thinking. "That's not how I remember it at all," she said to herself. One day Emma bought paints and brushes and painted her village just the way she remembered it. This was the beginning of a whole new life for her. Wendy Kesselman's delightful story was inspired by the artist Emma Stern, who began late in life, and Barbara Cooney's exquisite illustrations are based on Emma Stern's paintings. | HarperCollins Publishers |
