Rubbish and Recycling (Usborne See Inside)

I got this book when my child was 7 and now at age 9 still continues to be one of the favorite books. Lots of information about creation, transmission of energy, its sources, the pollution caused, etc. Good book for 7 year old and above, useful for general knowledge and school projects too!

Aunque el libro esta enfocado a los niños, también resulta muy interesante para los adultos. Se lo había comprado a mi hijo de 7 años que en el colegio le estaban explicando el reciclado, para ampliar un poco los conceptos y la verdad es que en casa estamos todos encantados y hemos aprendido cosas nuevas. El libro explica con todo lujo de detalles como funciona la recogida de la basura, la selección de los diferentes residuos y su posterior tratamiento. Para hacerlo mas entretenido para el público infantil, está lleno de ventanas y también tiene un desplegable que explica cómo funciona una planta de gestión de residuos. Además, como todos los libros que tenemos de esta editorial, el libro está impecablemente editado, con tapas duras, hojas gruesas para posibilitar las ventanas y buena calidad de impresión. Os dejo una fotos del interior del libro para que podáis ver cómo es el interior del mismo, y los contenidos que desarrolla. También para que podáis ver el nivel de inglés que tiene, que no es demasiado elevado, al estar enfocado al público infantil.Si esta reseña te ha resultado útil, por favor, házmelo saber, Gracias!!! 😊

Beautiful, bright, and colourful illustrations and images! Flaps are very informative! Absolutely awesome way to teach children about the necessity to Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle! :)

We ordered a few of the "See inside" books and they are always a hit with the kids.This one deals with Rubbish and what happens with it when you throw it out.There is lots of information about everything to do with Rubbish and Recycling.The middle section has a big fold out all about a sorting plant.Each page has flaps for even more informationPrice at amazon was the cheapest I could find, and the books arrived within a couple of days.

I gave this book to my four year old grandson for his birthday. It was an immediate hit. First of all, he was enthralled with the British words sprinkled throughout the book, and especially the word "rubbish". The illustrations don't miss a step about where the rubbish goes and what happens next. There are plenty of flaps to see inside the machines, etc. This book inspired a family visit to the local recycling plant for a tour. You will not be disappointed with this wonderful book.

Bought as a 4th birthday present and was a great success. Lots of flaps, pictures of machines and super educational! Explains what happens to rubbish, from household waste to airplanes. Works on lots of age levels, the adults definitely learned a lot too. I liked that it provided a link between what we do as individuals and the world around us, not just the environment but also all the jobs and processes that happen as a result of us recycling a yogurt pot. It will last a good few years as it is a nice sturdy book which remains engaging after multiple readings. We have a few 'see inside' books and I would say this one which is suitable for younger readers (age 3 up perhaps). Also a good one for those with a love of machines. Goes into lots of detail, how the various materials are sorted and recycled, landfills, water: sewers, purification, compost, rubbish collection and so on. Recommended!
