climate change for elementary school

The Snow Man uses folk art and creative text to tell a fascinating story

The Snow Man is an illustrated book unlike any one that we’ve read before. It’s a non-fiction story that is completely fascinating in its by-the-numbers, almost poetry text and outsider art illustrations-and that is just in how The Snow Man looks. The story is just as interesting, and considering the subject matter it is perfectly paired with the text and art.

The Snow Man: A True Story is about a guy who lived in the mountains for almost 50 years, documenting things because he wanted a simpler life.

potentially confusing title, but a cracking non-fiction illustrated book

Our World Out of Balance ecologically nails climate change for kids

Just yesterday we reviewed a climate change book aimed at early elementary-aged readers. That book was the opposite of Our World Out of Balance, Understanding Climate Change and What We Can Do by Andrea Minoglio and Laura Fanelli. That’s a scary title, isn’t it? Our World Out of Balance sounds like it would be an alarmist, riot grrl, worst case, handbook for skipping school on Friday and blaming the environment for it. Instead, Our World Out of Balance is a STEM-focused, scientific-minded, cause and effect illustrated book that will make kids think and want to solve, instead of panic and freak out.

This is STEM-based, edu-taianment reading at its best
