商品描述内容简介From Gisela Jernigan--Childrens Literature: "Although Pigeon Creek flows into Washington's beautiful Puget Sound, before it was adopted and cleaned up by Mr. Jackson's fifth grade class, it was so full of trash that you could barely see the water, let alone any fish. Just about everyone in Jackson Elementary, led by the dedicated fifth grade, helped to clean the creek and restock it with baby salmon. Throughout the project the kids learned a great deal about the ecology of the stream and the needs and life cycle of the Coho salmon. And even though many people told them the salmon would never return to Pigeon Creek, they were successful. The many colored photos and drawings enhance the lively text, which is informal, informational and inspiring. Orbis Pictus Award winner and a Horn Book Fanfare award."媒体推荐"Pigeon Creek is past saving. Maybe you should just forget it." That's what the students of Jackson in Everett, Washington heard when they set out to reclaim a nearby stream that had once been a spawning ground for salmon. Undaunted, the children set to work--and this lively and inspiring account, featuring more than forty full-color photographs, tells how they worked a small but important ecological miracle.
