What Others are Saying about The Wartville Wizard…
Madden’s ecology lesson is humorous, and his breezy, colorful illustrations add to the comic and trash-laden predicament in which the citizens of Wartville find themselves.
I read this book to a second-grade class. They loved it! The message it gives about taking care of the environment is great. It is a little lengthy, so they would not have been able to read it on their own. It was a great book used for a social studies lesson.
