Clean up! written by Julia Lawson with photographs by Peter Millard. (Evans Brothers, 6.99)
The text is written from the perspective of four children, two girls and two boys, who are busy doing different kinds of cleaning. In the garden the children use tools to rake up leaves, then sweep dirt off the floor inside, and we are shown a road-sweeper working outside with bigger, swirling brushes. At the end of the book, the boys are shown chatting happily, surrounded by their pristine floor, when in walks one of the girls wearing muddy boots. Dotted throughout the book are action songs and follow-on activities. There is also a list of storybooks on a related theme, together with some brief science links.
