Les lecteurs seront sensibilises a ce sujet d’importance, mais ils seront surtout inspires a passer a l’action! Grace aux idees pour relever le defi zero plastique presentees a la fin du livre, les jeunes seront plus que jamais motives a apporter leur contribution.

 

It’s Nico’s birthday and the five friends are taking a ferry to the island for a picnic. Nico has been learning about plastic pollution, and he’s given his friends a challenge: go all day without using single-use plastics. Throughout the day, the five friends learn about how much plastic surrounds us in our daily lives, what plastic is made of, and how to say NO to plastic.

Readers will be made aware of a serious topic, but it’s not all doom and gloom—they will be inspired by the positive message of taking action! With ideas for a No-Plastic Challenge in the back matter, young readers will be motivated to do their part.
