Liz has been reading Toy Mountain by @StefGemmill and Katharine Hall. Colourful and fun illustrations coupled with playful language help this book deliver a message about valuing what you have. Review on the pod: onemorepagepodcast.com/episo…

On #InternationalMountainDay I'm thinking of the animals that rely on mountain habitats, and sad that the bogong moth has just been added to the endangered species list alongside its predator, the mountain pygmy-possum. #education for the next gen is important. #STEMeducation

#Repost @ozlitteacher thank you 🙏 Toy Mountain is a clever book about a boy tired of his old toys. He becomes a toy tester & ends up on a crazy plastic waste journey. A great text for a study unit on sustainability, recycling & consumerism. Ages 3+ #ozlitteachers #edtext
