As Santa is preparing for Christmas, he can’t see the bright snow and greenery for all o fthe trach that is scattered on the forest floor. When he gets sick, he lays in bed wracked with grief over his forest – not knowing that his forest friends got his message and have a surprise for him.

The illustration are vivid and cheerful, making up for the heavy-handed way the subject is treated. I like the Christmas treatment of recycling and reusing – a fun picture book for a more world-minded celebration.
