Kids will love Griffie! His timely message calls us to action! I like that he's proud of being different. Kids can relate to the story's characters as they learn how to care for the Earth. Questions and activities at the end provide strong support for discussion. -Kelli Mocny, Literacy Teacher Griffie, a unique and delightful mythical creature, shows kids how we harm our Earth and offers tips to protect animals and safeguard the future. -Marilyn Minto, elementary teacher Turning Earth stewardship into a fun adventure makes Griffie the perfect eco hero for preschoolers and the primary grades. -Judy Cullins, mom, teacher, author As an elementary teacher and a mother, I saw how social changes take off when children take home what they learn. I remember the day my daughter yelled ""Stop the car, Mommy. Put on your seatbelt!"" Griffie might be just what the eco doctor ordered. -Linda LeVier, elementry schoolteacher (ret.)
