Wendy Books

Welcome to Wendy's Wonderful World of Water!

Here is where you can learn all there is to know about your local water utility to our environment and our everyday lives. Our journey begins with our first book, Wendy Where Does Our Wastewater Go?

This story takes students on a fun and informative tour of the wastewater treatment process at their local plant. Wendy and her companions learn where wastewater goes and how it is treated in Washington, DC.

This book is aimed at elementary school students, ages 6 – 12 but can be eye-opening to an array of students and parents, too. Educators can use this resource to add a new twist to environmental holidays as well as inform students about how to expand their pollution reduction goals to the collection system and overall health of their local waterways. This book is available for retail, wholesale to utilities and bookstores and we are also providing free copies to schools and communities. Details are listed below.
