Our Review Panel says...

‘Why Water’s Worth It’ is an informative picture book aimed at teaching children why water is valuable and what changes they can make in their everyday lives to conserve and not waste water. The book starts by exploring different uses for water, moving on to how our water is cleaned at treatment centres before closing with ideas for children to consider on how they can use less water. Teaching our pupils to be caring-global-citizens is vitally important and this book would provide EYFS and KS1 teachers with a great platform to discuss why it is important to take care of our planet and what taking care of our natural resources looks like in action to young children…
