They talk about reusing plastic and even reuse the plastic bags as kites, but it would have been nice to see more conversations/actions regarding the other R's. Great starter book to have the pollution conversation with children at an early age. - <i>Bookseller at Indigo Books and Music</i></p> <p>I enjoyed this book. I think that it simply presented the problem of the amount of plastic that our country consumes and the reason why it is a problem (because it ends up in the oceans. I think that the illustrations are wonderful and it is a great visual presentation of the plastic problem. The introduction to all the characters int he beginning of the book was adorable, I think it is a great way for the kids to relate to which character they may be. I think that this would be a great book to read out loud to a class. - <i>VIPKID</i></p> <p>A group of animal friends discover that much of the plastic we use ends up cluttering the ocean.
