Description

Earth Day is one of my favourite holidays. It's important to keep our planet as pretty as a picture. From a playground cleanup to the Earth Day parade I'm doing everything I can to make sure Jacksonville is crowned the Prettiest Town in Texas. I'm going to be the green queen of Earth Day just you wait and see

Reviews

I like this book a lot, but it's kind of gross how Kylie Jean shares her ice cream with her dog. I like Kylie Jean and her friends. This book is really about friendship, but it is also about taking care of the Earth.-- "San Francisco Book Club"
While fiction books on environmental themes are rather rare, it is even more difficult to find such books for early readers. In this book, Kylie Jean is determined to celebrate Earth Day. She comes up with a plan and invites her friends to join. Soon, they plan to clean up their trash-filled school yard and repair and repaint its play things.-- "Reading Online Today"
