Plastic Bottles on the Beach is our new book that was created as a companion to the previous book entitled, Plastic Bags in Trees. This work is meant to further highlight the serious problem we face with the plastic pollution of our beaches and seas. Together with three of my grandsons we put together our thoughts, images and observations as well as proposed solutions to this ecological scourge. We hope to make the readers more aware of this problem and promote ongoing and new cleanup activities. This book provides educational material as well as civic engagement ideas to young readers.

"Was it a bird, a kite, a ghost or a flag? Believe it or not, it was a dirty plastic bag! How did it get there? What did this mean? It was the strangest sight he'd ever seen." This book was created by Ethan and his Poppy. There was a plastic bag stuck in the tree just outside Ethan's Brooklyn living-room window. The bag was well beyond the reach of anyone. Ethan and Poppy would see the bag and comment about how it got there, and how to remove it. As they walked the streets of NYC and beyond, they found many more plastic bags stuck in trees, behind bushes, in fences, etc. This book is a product of their research and numerous discussions. It is our greatest hope that by publishing this book, others will become more aware and dedicated to cleaning our environment.
