The Wacky World of Worms is
an excellent how-to book dealing with starting and maintaining
a home recycling worm bin. Organic growers will value
this book for all the solid information it has about vermicomposting,
giving them the means to a steady supply of rich fertilizer
all
year round. It has all you should know to begin with worms
and
then
some! You also get valuable insight into the potential
pitfalls and how to avoid and/or correct them.
Though the author
wrote this book simply enough for children to
understand and to have fun with, there's enough informtion
and how-to for all ages and levels. It has lots of illustrations...and,
it has Sammy! He
is a red wiggler himself, doubling as our narrator, teacher,
businessman and activities coordinator. Everything you
need to know about recycling kitchen scraps with worms
is presented, as well as trouble-shooting with "Doctor
Sammy," who attends to any problems that may appear.
This is an excellent classroom tool
for elementary and middle school children. Sammy takes
the class through the steps of starting the worm recycling
bin and then onto learning much more about the redworm
and about the importance of recycling. They will learn
the answers to questions like:
