EDITORIAL INFORMATION

Presenting the fascinating world of science to children can be a difficult task if it is done through general divulgative books. Publishing scientific books exclusively written for children is a magnificient idea.

"Poo may be mucky, it sure is yucky, but the millionaires of Nauru also think it's lucky. Poo pours out of farms and towns, poo-lluting the place for miles around. From sewage works to gumtrees, this book tells you stories of potoroos'loos, poo-ticular cats, pwooing birds and plankton pwooze that feeds the animals of the deep ocean. You too could be a poo millionaire, and help the poo cycle to work properly."

Professor David Bellamy, botanist, writer and broadcaster, is one of the best known and most respected scientists in Britain. His television and radio broadcasts communicate his enthusiasm and concern for the natural world. His vast experience of ecological issues is reflected in this funny / serious book for children.
