Bunnies, Fish and Worms Help the Garden

Worms, rabbits, and guppies can collaborate to create a thriving garden ecosystem. The book explains how composting worms break down food scraps into nutrient-rich castings, while rabbits provide safe and cuddly companionship while producing cold manure for fertilization from garden and kitchen waste. Guppies create nutrient-rich aquarium water to water the plants, while contributing to a peaceful home.

While emphasizing the practical benefits, such as sustainable fertilization and waste reduction, it also shows how to use the joy and wonder of observing these creatures to teach young gardeners about ecoystems and animals. It offers tips for teachers and parents interested in sharing about the interconnectedness of nature and the importance of environmental consciousness. Includes lesson plan for parents and teachers.
