Rachel Carson was an environmentalist who studied the way the land, plants, and animals interact with each other, beginning when she was a child. She noticed that everything is connected, and all of nature must stay healthy for living things to thrive. When she realized that the chemicals people used outdoors were making plants, animals, and even other people sick, she began teaching others about the ecosystems, and how we must take care of them to keep the Earth balanced. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKids will see, through Rachel's curiosity and passion for all creatures, that even seemingly small choices can have big consequences on the world around them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLook for all of the books in the Big Ideas for Little Environmentalists series: \u003ci\u003eConservation with Jane Goodall\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eRestoration with Wangari Maathai\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003ePreservation with Aldo Leopold\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaureen McQuerry is an award-winning children's author, poet, and teacher.
