The
Super Parp-Buster
Fun environment book complete with discussion
notes
Slim Pickles and Jolly
spend all day in their shed on a hill inventing
knick-knacks and nobblers and thing-a-me-jigs.
When they build a road to their shed lots of visitors
drive up the hill to see these inventions, but
then the air grows thick with parps and pollution.
They try to devise
a machine to trap all the parps, but when this
doesn't work they decide what the world really
needs is a super parp-buster!
Complete with discussion
notes for use by teachers of lower and middle
primary school students. The notes identify key
concepts underpinning the story, and include information
and exercises to encourage thinking about environmental
and transportation issues such as pollution, greenhouse
emissions, the Kyoto Protocol, and photosynthesis.
