In Composting, early fluent readers learn how organic matter breaks down to create a nutritious soil additive. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text will engage young readers as they learn about how compost can be used to help their garden thrive. An infographic illustrates the components of a compost pile, and an experiment offers kids an opportunity to extend discovery. Children can learn more about composting using our safe search engine that provides relevant, age-appropriate websites. Composting also features reading tips for teachers and parents, a table of contents, a glossary, and an index. Composting is part of Jump!'s Way to Grow! Gardening series.
