Pelucco

The Award-Winning Book That Turns Kids Into Environmental Heroes
Are you struggling to explain plastic pollution to your children without overwhelming them? Looking for a way to teach environmental responsibility that actually sticks? Wondering how to find a book that's both scientifically accurate and engaging enough to compete with screens and video games?

Black & White Edition (Low Budget B&W Edition)
This edition was created with accessibility in mind. We believe budget should never be a barrier to learning - especially when it comes to understanding our planet.
Pelucco: An environmental story for kids (Low Budget B&W Edition) contains the exact same story and text as the full-color version (Pelucco: A Microplastic's Journey), but with all illustrations printed in black and white.
This lower-cost edition makes it easier for more readers - families, schools, environmental educators - to access a story that explains in a simple, engaging way how microplastics travel and how we can help stop their impact.
Because protecting the Earth starts with understanding it... and everyone deserves that chance.

Pelucco: An environmental story for kids answers all these challenges through a story that has already captivated international juries and many young readers worldwide.

Why This Book Stands Out From All the Rest:

Internationally award-winning - Winner of the prestigious Nabokov Prize 2023 and 4 other major literary awards, ensuring top-tier quality recognized by experts.
