Curious about Composting

What is composting and how does it work? And does it stink? Ignite kids' growing curiosity about the green living with an inquiry-based approach to composting. Composting takes food scraps, dry leaves, and old newspapers, and with the help of billions of tiny bacteria, turns it into nutrient soil for gardens. Conversational questions and answers guide early elementary readers on a critical thinking journey with accessible text about what to put in compost bins, how to make sure it doesn't smell, the difference between hot and cold composts, and how composting can help save the Earth from climate change.
