For his birthday celebration, Nick has challenged his friends Yulee, Sally, Pedro and Martin to spend the day without using any singleuse plastic. This means they use their own cloth bags for shopping, they say no thanks to plastic straws and, instead of balloons, they decorate with kites and streamers made of natural materials. The children discover that not using plastic is not that hard. They also learn about what plastic is made of, how much of it surrounds us and how its polluting our oceans and affecting the food chain. Most importantly, the five friends learn ways to use less including just saying NO! The book concludes with fun ideas for readers to do a NoPlastic Challenge of their own!This friendly introduction to a timely and urgent topic is part of Scot Ritchies popular Exploring Our Community series. It will raise awareness of just how much plastic we use every day, and why that matters. Rather than focusing on the negative, however, the book takes a positive, proactive approach to the subject, empowering children with ideas for what they can do about it. As with all the books in the series, this one features friendly, appealing illustrations and the same diverse cast of characters. It has strong curriculum ties in science, including environmental awareness, sustainability and stewardship. It also offers terrific character education lessons in responsibility, citizenship and initiative.
