Description:

Debuting the same day as celebrity wife and "Inconvenient Truth" producer Laurie David's "Down to Earth Guide to Global Warming," backed by a dynamic marketing campaign that speaks to parents sick of being dictated to by has-been politicians, pop singers and former talent scouts, The Sky's NOT Falling! is exactly what Scholastic's book should be -- fact-filled, fun, apolitical, and optimistic about the future of our magnificent planet.

In The Sky's NOT Falling! natural resources policy expert Holly Fretwell shows kids 9-12 that it's human ingenuity and adaptability - and not a mindless fear of change - that are most likely to guarantee the Earth a healthy future.

Prof. Fretwell brings genuine educational credentials and practical experience to the environmental debate, giving kids the straight scoop about global warming -- and the potentially devastating human and economic consequences of politically motivated responses to it.

Can it really be that human innovation and creativity, combined with individual choice, will yield better environmental outcomes than the draconian, self-congratulatory approaches advocated by Al Gore and his Hollywood friends? Yes!

The Sky's NOT Falling! is sure to be one of the most talked-about kids' books of the year.
