Humanitarian organizations : greenpeace
Grade 5-8–Each book discusses the history, founder(s), early work, and core values of the featured group. Vibrantly colored maps show where the organization is located throughout the world. Handy time lines are included. Both titles have Concerns, campaigns, and classic actions sections. In Greenpeace, actions include encouraging Americans to write to Martha Stewart to ask her to stop using PVC packaging. Then, four people involved in each association are introduced, putting a human face on the work it does. A section on how students can get involved is included. Did you know? boxes offer further, sometimes obscure facts. In Red Cross, for example, readers learn that Cambodian land mines injure 60 people every month. Color photographs are plentiful and add clarity.
