"It is lovely, simply lovely. It reads comfortably and is the perfect little book.... Congratulations also to Angela Cater for the perfect portrayal of every little girl's raccoon." - David Bouchard, award winning author, presenter and educator.
"So you’re looking for a book to help teach and encourage your children to recycle? Perhaps you’re looking for a couple of tips to help improve your own “green power”? Rickie The Raccoon Learns About Recycling is an independently published book dedicated “… to every parent and child out there who is taking, or wants to take, the initiative step to help stop Global Warming.” With a simple story and additional tips and resources at the back of the book, children will be inspired and encouraged to learn this new task of recycling. The message of “how to” recycle is delivered loud and clear for readers of all ages, by fictitious characters that help to lighten up the learning experience. Reading this book can only add to the excitement that comes from taking care of our beautiful earth."
Bianca Schultze, The Children's Book Review
"...A short - but nonetheless informative - read, Rickie The Raccoon Learns About Recycling is an invaluable teaching tool for introducing young readers to the importance of recycling, as well as engaging in environmentally-friendly behavior. Effectively complemented with vivid, detailed illustrations, the insightful new offering from authors Giovanna Lagana and Angela Cater serves as a comprehensive resource guide, complete with a host of helpful tips for eco-friendly living, as well as a plethora of websites, books, and activities designed to foster a deeper appreciation for the responsibility we all must take in playing our part to create a healthier world.
Ostensibly geared toward a younger audience, Rickie The Raccoon Learns About Recycling will no doubt enlighten many a soul - young and old alike - about the global impact of the seemingly harmless choices we make in our everyday lives. A highly recommended read".
