A great nuture conservation picture book

A simple book written to show a different perspective on land use. Like most city people, the main character doesn't consider an "empty lot" to serve any purpose. After examining the "empty lot," he realizes that all types of life are on his now occupied lot. A good book for showing that humans aren't the only life that need this earth.
