《学校图书馆杂志》(School Library Journal)书评
Gr 2-5-A collection of new poems, stories, and artwork on the theme of environmental protection, contributed by over 40 well-known authors and illustrators. Unlike many books of this ilk, the reading level is fairly even from piece to piece, and text and pictures are nicely interdependent-particularly Natalie Babbitt's ``The Last Days of the Giddywit,'' with Steven Kellogg's ironic portraits of the slovenly prehistoric tribe; Ruth Heller's dazzling selection on jellyfish; and the Dillons' haunting melange of images accompanying Joanne Ryder's poem about deer. Art and photographs are reproduced in sharp, vibrant colors. Selections vary in length from 1 to 10 pages, and nonfiction mingles naturally with the stories and poetry. Laurence Pringle adds an essay on bats, Seymour Simon on wetlands, and Milton Meltzer on Frederick Law Olmstead and New York City's Central Park. Consistently lively and readable, this collection delivers its message in imaginative, and therefore effective, ways. Readers who dip or dive into it will emerge with a feeling for both the strength and the fragility of nature, as well as an enhanced awareness of their responsibilities to this planet.-John Peters, New York Public Library (c) Copyright 2010.

出版社周刊评论
Proceeds from the sale of this delightfully variegated volume will benefit six environmental groups, and any child or adult who browses through these pages will also profit--from the many eloquent, trenchant statements issued through words, art or an inspired blending of the two. An introduction by the editors stresses ``that what the Earth needs is more clean water, fresh air, trees, bats, whales, and mushrooms--and less garbage, traffic, and pollution.'' This point is made a number of times with a varying degree of clarity and effectiveness, from Tana Hoban's brief, forthright plea to ``take time to care,'' illustrated with six simple nature photos; to H. M. Hoover's rather obscure fable about an ancient, giant mushroom over which a mall is built. Natalie Babbitt, Marilyn Sachs and William Sleator are among those who deliver their messages with generous doses of wry humor; Anne Rockwell, Jane Yolen and Tomie dePaola present poems; and Milton Meltzer, Seymour Simon and Laurence Pringle offer concise pieces on, respectively, the accomplishments of Frederick Law Olmsted, wetlands, and bats. As diverse as these contributions is the artwork by an equally prominent group of illustrators, among them Barbara Cooney, Leo and Diane Dillon, Diane Goode, Steven Kellogg, Jerry Pinkney and Paul O. Zelinsky. The assembled talent proves equal to its mission. All ages. (Oct.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Designed by Jane Byers Bierhorst. The collection of twenty-eight illustrated short stories, essays, and poems by well-known authors provides readers with a thought-provoking look at preserving the Earth. The entries range from a Native-American legend to a piece about the creation of Central Park, and the tone ranges from serious to lighthearted. From HORN BOOK 1993, (c) Copyright 2010.

Again, an all-star collaboration in aid of a worthy cause: Mother Earth herself. The 28 original entries include several poems, fables, and other imaginative tales, plus nonfiction: on bats, by Laurence Pringle (with photos by ``Batman'' Merlin Tuttle); on wetlands, by Seymour Simon; on Central Park's Frederick Law Olmsted, by Milton Meltzer; and some of Tana Hoban's splendid photos. Though quality varies, there are some nifty stories (satire's a natural here): Marilyn Sachs's whale's- eye view of Jonah (not a politically correct snack--junk food, and an endangered species, too); Natalie Babbitt's ``The Last Days of the Giddywit,'' who live ``after the dinosaurs but before shovels'' and come to a bad end because they never clean out their caves; William Sleator's chilling glimpse of future ``Traffic''; etc. From Aliki and Arnosky to Van Allsburg and Zelinsky, 28 illustrators reflect the texts in a fine range of styles. A grand resource to enliven a unit, to ponder, or simply to enjoy. Six conservation organizations are to benefit. (Anthology. 6-12)
《书目》(Booklist)书评
Gr. 3-6. More than 40 notable authors and illustrators have created stories, poems, essays, pictures, and photographs especially for this anthology, which celebrates living harmoniously with the earth. Selections range from the humorous (Natalie Babbitt and Steven Kellogg's "Last Days of the Giddywit," in which some untidy cavemen learn to bury their trash) and the whimsical (Marilyn Sachs and Tracey Campbell Pearson's "Little Whale and Jonah," a variation of the biblical story) to the serious (John Bierhorst and Wendy Watson's Native American legend, "Why There Is Death"). Most pieces are representative of each contributor's best-known genre; for example, an eerie science-fiction offering from H. M. Hoover; a historical essay on public parks by Milton Meltzer; several limericks by X. J. Kennedy; and nonfiction articles on the wetlands by Seymour Simon and on bats by Laurence Pringle. Printed on recycled paper with proceeds to be split by several environmental organizations, this inviting collection will be popular with browsers and useful for those planning Earth Day programs. ~--Kay Weisman
