RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif., June 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Kids Smart Publishing and Kids Konserve, a leading reusable lunchware company, have collaborated to create a new<

The reusable lunch sack, made with 100 percent recycled cotton and printed with vegetable-based inks, is free of BPA, lead and phthalate, and is sure to be a hit among kids and parents.

In addition, Kids Smart Publishing is donating copies of “Jimmy’s Gone Green” to elementary school libraries in order to help increase children’s access to green books and help raise environmental awareness among young children.
“The book is a great introduction to what it means to go green,” said Monique Harris. “It fosters conversation and encourages children to ask questions about the environment and how they can make a difference.”
School administrators are encouraged to contact Monique Harris at KS Publications, Inc. for details.
