Great with oil spill lab by GrapeMusic55 (Brandon, FL)  5 Stars
June 25, 2008
This book is a perfect hook for the classic oil spill in a pie-pan simulation lab. Stop reading aloud before the clean-up methods and have students explore their own clean up theories. Then debrief the lab by reading the rest of the book aloud and discussing.

May 21, 2002
We just read this book as a read aloud for science in our homeschool. We learning alot about oil spills and the damage they can cause. At the end of the book was the idea for kids to write to Senators about laws for oil tankers and such. My son and I plan to do this. This is a great lesson on how kids can be involved and can make a diffrence in the world today.
