Living Environment

In such a frenetic world, finding the time to organize your stuff often seems impossible. It's not really a priority. Yet it should be, because being organized will greatly improve your quality of life. If you're organized, you are always on time for appointments and prepared for meetings. It means you will remember special occasions and to set aside time for all your daily tasks. It means not wasting precious minutes searching for your car keys in the morning or finding your phone when it rings in the evening.

When Kristen Balouch was ten years old, her parents made a surprising announcement: their whole family was going on a trip to plant trees! Kristen, her sisters, and her mom and dad—and their pet, Wonder Dog—flew from their California home to a logging site in British Columbia. There, they joined a crew working to replant the trees that had been cut down. In this story, Kristen reflects on the forty days they spent living in a tent, covered in mud and bug bites, working hard every day to plant a new forest.

This is a great, fun story with catchy tunes and lyric to educate young children about the importance of conservation.
