   Theo and the Giant Plastic Ball      
              
«This beautifully illustrated story tells of of Theo and his quest to improve at football by making a ball out of discarded plastic bags. This then leads to clearing up his local environment and the realisation that by the community working together they could maintain a cleaner, more healthy environment. The book ends with some useful facts and figures on plastic which will help to interest and inform the reader. It also provides some useful tips for children to improve their environment.»
