Keepers of the Earth is a sensitive and well-thought-out guide for helping children love and care for the Earth. It is highly recommended as a resource for parents and teachers. Keepers of the Earth is really three books within two covers. It contains carefully selected and illustrated Native American stories, many excellent indoor and outdoor learning activities for young people and helpful sources and suggestions for teaching ecology. All three components are artfully blended to give the reader the clear message that we are all connected to nature and that we need to understand and care for the Earth.
