Have you checked out the updated Clean Energy booklist?
Hey Reader,
We're working on updating all of our book lists with more picture books to share with your young learners. While we've been on the topic of clean energy, we recently updated our book list for that Sustainable Development Goal. Go check it out if you haven't seen it yet.
We also updated the printable list that includes a sheet you can bring to the library to grab a few of the books on the list (without having to dig through your phone or computer for the titles).
If you'd like more resources to supplement the clean energy books, we have an awesome Renewable Energy Workbook that might fit your needs.
Hope you've had a good start to the new year and be sure to check out our updated resources!

Hey Reader, As you can guess from the lists of picture books we rounded up related to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, we're big fans of books around here. A few months ago, Jen started paying her kids to read (for reasons beyond bribing them to stick their noses in books). It's not for everyone, but it's worked out pretty well for her and her boys, who are 10 and 12. It's also apparently a pretty hot topic with a lot of opinions. We'd love to know if you'd pay your kids to read. Check...
Hey Reader, With objectives so broad and encompassing so many facets of life, it's no surprise that pursuits related to the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals sometimes intersect in complicated ways. And in the United States, we're seeing that right now in a high-profile labor strike by autoworkers who work for car manufacturers. Among several points of contention, auto workers are concerned that a transition from traditional internal combustion engine cars to electric vehicles...
Hey Reader, In many places this time of year, it can be very cold or sweltering hot. Heating and cooling our homes is one of the largest sources of energy use for many families, particularly in times of extreme weather. Additionally, energy costs are rising. For both financial and environmental reasons, a transition to clean energy (as promoted by UN Sustainable Development Goal #7) is important, but we also need to supplement this transition with more efficient use of energy and reduced...
