About The Author

Alex Frith has been writing Usborne books since 2005. His diverse output covers such titles as 'See inside Your Head', 'Stories of Thor' and 'Politics for Beginners'. He has spoken at multiple festivals about his book '100 Things to Know About Space'. Alex can be found in London.

As a change from very broad overviews of green matters, this large, colourful book concentrates on what happens to our rubbish. Every packed page offers flaps to lift…plus a page of facts. For example, "26 plastic bottles can make a whole ski outfit." It's amaze your parents time! The four fold-out centre pages are interesting to everyone who recycles… Although aimed at the primary years, because of the illustrations, this can be suitable for the youngest children and parents will have some questions answered too.
