Hyde. An autobiographical account of a rancher, whose relationship with a coyote changes his perspective and motivations in life. "Never Cry Wolf" - by Farley Mowat. An autobiographical account of a year long, "canis lupis" study in the 1960's for the Canadian government.. Both still apply to today's concerns.

Based upon one of the author's true life experience, this fictional tale sparks kids to start Kid's GWSOS Clubs in their schools supported and sponsored by teacher sponsors. With a little cunning and great deal of creativity the son of a father who represents the most environmentally friendly, least hazardous solution to our air pollution and greenhouse gas epidemic along with his two best friends, girls, come together to help Stephen's dad who has just been rudely turned down by the head of the transportation department at his local waste and disposal company for testing his product. It wasn't being turned down that prompted the writing of this soon-to-be collectible kid's book but the manner in which the father, a financially struggling customer of the waste and disposal company, was treated. After waiting a month and a half for an answer to the test results of the product the father had dropped off while paying his bill at the waste and disposal company, he phoned the head of transportation department and introduced himself. The abbreviated conversation went like this: "Hello, Mr Sharke." "Yeah, what do you want?" "I'm Paul Harrington, the rep for Product B." "So what." “Well, since we’re both in the recycle business, you must care about cleaner air? Doesn’t that matter to you?" "Look fella, are we going to play 40 questions here? I said NO. Am I going to have to get nasty with you?” If that wasn't enough, that Sharke guy, without another word, slammed the phone receiver down in his father's ear. Now it's up to you to read the rest of the story. The most revolutionary children's book of our time on how to stop Global Warming has just been written and published:

Not only does he make sense, he backs up what he says with facts and real scientists with actual names! Also, unlike Algore, he doesn't demand that no one debate what he says. And that's important, because we now know that Man Made Global Warming is an algorerhythm.

John Robbins writes is such a caring way opening the mind to how diet has a profound effect on the environment as well as one's spirit. Also Helen Caldicott on nuclear energy is basic reading.
