#CybilsAwards Backlist Booklist: Environmental Picture Books

Earth Day was a couple of days ago, and so we thought a list featuring Environmental books for our youngest readers would be fitting. There are some beautiful books on here, and ones that will remind us that Mother Earth is worth taking care of. Enjoy!
