Part of the Miss Fox's Class series
A teacher's green initiative inspires a school-wide eco-revolution.
When Miss Fox arrives at school on a bicycle, her students are curious. Her simple declaration of 'going green' sparks a wave of eco-friendly actions. Mouse shortens showers, Bunny uses cloth bags, and Possum conserves energy. As these small changes ripple through the classroom, the entire school, including the principal, embraces the green movement. Can one teacher's choice truly transform a community? Discover how Miss Fox's initiative leads to a sustainable revolution.
2010 Green Prize for Sustainable Literature Youth Picture Book 2010 Green Earth Book Award When Miss Fox shows up at school riding her bicycle, Mouse asks, “Do you have a flat tire?” “No,” Miss Fox tells her students. “I am going green!” Soon everyone in the class is working to keep the earth healthy. Mouse takes shorter showers (and does her singing after!); Bunny brings a cloth bag to the supermarket; and Possum turns the lights off when he goes out. And Miss Fox’s simple act has ripples even beyond her own students…soon the whole school starts riding their bikes–including the principal.
