To meet the challenge you must read three Earth books and they each must have a different color. Here are ten suggested books, but you can read other books on this theme too:
Red: Our Earth: Helping Out (Scholastic News) by Peggy Hock (available on Bookflix)
Orange: Wangari's Trees of Peace: A True Story from Africa by Jeanette Winter
Yellow: Where Does the Garbage Go by Paul Showers
Yellow: Children of the Earth...Remember by Schim Schimmel
Yellow: Garbage Helps Our Garden Grow: A Compost Story by Linda Glaser

Blue: The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein
Blue: Joseph Had a Little Overcoat by Simms Taback (available on Bookflix)

You can read these books at home or in class. Just remember to put them on your reading log! Almost all of these books can be found in either the Morris Plains or the Morris County Library and many of them are available in our classroom.
Use the comments section to make comments, ask questions, or tell us other great Earth books you've read.
Happy reading,
Miss Kramer

Thank you, Miss Kramer, for including Compost Stew in your Earth Rainbow reading challenge. What a colorful spectrum of wonderful books about the Earth, and such a clever way to encourage students to diversify their reading!
ReplyDeleteAnother green/poetry book that your students might also like is A Leaf Can Be... by Laura Purdie Salas. Hope that everyone will dig in and enjoy sampling many colors of the Earth Rainbow!
Thank you so much for your comment. We are so excited to connect with one of the authors on our Earth Rainbow! We are going to be reading your book altogether this week and making our own classroom compost! We will find the book you suggest and add it to our classroom library. Thanks again!
