"The information is engaging and seamlessly integrated. The issues of urban sprawl, lack of green space, traffic, and light pollution are simplified, yet still sophisticated enough for middle schoolers. This book in the Eco STEAM series would be an excellent addition to a classroom or library collection." —Booklist
