At the start of the year we really hoped we'd see lots and lots of books about saving the planet, being more ecologically minded, or even going green so the first title we looked at in the new "Be" range is "Be Green" by Mandy Archer and Katie Abey.
With zany eye-catching journal-like artwork, "Be Green" encourages kids to do their bit for the environment with some simple activities that can make a huge difference.
Perfect to dip into on your own, or perhaps rally friends and your classmates into some of the more involved activities, this really is completely timely for what's going on with the younger generation who are taking a stand against environmental damage, climate change and our changing world's reliance on single-use plastic and fossil fuels.

| We've only got one of these, let's look after it better! |
"Be Green" by Mandy Archer and Katie Abey is out now, published by Studio Press.
There's also "Be Kind" by Stephanie Clarkson and Katie Abey...
Again, this one's full of brilliant ideas and activities that can be enjoyed alone or with friends or in class, taking a look at how we can all do our bit to look after others and be more mindful of their feelings and needs as well as our own (and that's definitely a lesson quite a few adults could do with learning as well, right?)
We really loved the design of these books, with tons of pages to colour in, draw on or note down your own ideas and action plans to really get organised and do something about each topic.
Absolutely brilliant stuff!
The "Be" range is out now, from Studio Press (both titles above very kindly supplied for review).
