George goes green! "This picture book offers young children an appealing introduction to reusing and recycling."—Booklist

George loves to go to the science museum. So, when he finds out that the museum is planning a "Green Day" dedicated to recycling and planting trees, George is curious and wants to help out! But little monkeys eager to help can sometimes become little monkeys getting into trouble. When George begins to find and recycle things around town that aren't quite ready for the recycle bin, he gets into a jam.

Thankfully, George isn't the only one who wants to help. The whole community can't wait to lend a hand—and help George and the museum plant some trees!

Originally published to coincide with the opening of the Margret & H.A. Rey Center in Waterville, New Hampshire, a model for energy conservation offering literary, educational, and other programs, this book also includes kid-friendly tips for helping the environment.
