Be Kind to the Environment

About the Book

Be Kind to the Environment is the first of a series of books for children focusing on introducing young minds to issues pertaining to the environment. It is intended to be a primer, a beginning, for curious minds to explore the words pertaining to the environment. I turned to early childhood development educators for confirmation that writing a series of books for children on the importance of protecting and preserving the environment was appropriate and not beyond age levels. There was resounding encouragement and a sense of urgency that these books were needed now. Children can have fun learning about the environment. “Be Kind to the Environment” is a user friendly and fun teaching aid that encourages discussion, will help clarify current issues, give a better understanding of the environment, and offer options we can all choose to live in a kinder world.

About the Author

Barbara Feltquate is a cool grandmother with a knack for connecting to kids whether enthralling them by throwing a spiraling football or by spinning imaginative tales. Her spiritual side resonates with all ages and genders who find comfort and validation in her uplifting poetry. Retirement offered her the time and opportunity to fulfill her dream of writing. The great novel never materialized but her spiritual, uplifting and sometimes whimsical poetry has brought comfort and self-reflection to many. She never tires of hearing that “Silhouettes of Life” has found a prominent place on the reader’s night table. Barbara continues writing poetry but is now focusing on creating children’s books with stories that are not only entertaining but create opportunities for education and discussion. Her five book “Be Kind to the Environment” series will be out soon. Barbara’s philosophy that children can have fun learning is very apparent in her books.
