What matters

A boy who puts a discarded soda can into the recycling bin doesn't think his action matters much. But as the boy walks further along, the text explains that it mattered to an ant, a worm, "a dandelion that would have wilted," and so on. The digital mixed-media illustrations, while pleasant enough, do little to elucidate the obscurely laid out eco-message. (c) Copyright 2017.
