E for Environment (TM): An Annotated Bibliography of Children's Books with Environmental Themes
By Patti K. Sinclair
Published by R. R. Bowker, 1992
This is a 5" X 8" hardcover book of 292 pages including the Author, Title and Subject indices.
What it is is a bibliography of children's books for parents or teachers wanting books to help create an environmental awareness in children.
The bibliographical entries are under five major sections with subjections under each.
The sections are:
1. Planting the seeds of environmental awareness: Introducing young children to nature
2. The web of life [principles of ecology and ecological niches]
3. At issue [specific environmental issues and issue areas]
4. People and nature [environmental philosophy]
5. It's your turn: Activities, explorations, and activism
Appendix - Environmental classics: Suggestions for further reading
517 titles are included all together, published approximately between 1982 and 1992, making it a little moldy at this point as bibliographies go, and Bowker has not published an update. Neveretheless, it's a very useful resource for teaching kids about the environment.
