Sacramento, CA, February 02, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Ramona California's Greg Chick, a LEED-AP plumber
and water advocate with over 40 years experience as a licensed contractor, tells the complete story of
water through two fictional characters, cousins named Mike and Mac Ro. Mac and his wife Jane care
about Planet Earth, they are advocates for nature. They do their best to educate Mike and Goldie who love
the fast life and creature comforts and could care less about conservation and sustainability. Illustrator
Audrey Ly, a recent honors graduate of San Diego State University with a degree in Multimedia, brings
every concept to life with vibrant story-telling art. There is nothing in the marketplace today like this
timely and relevant book.

It's easy-to-read and full of verifiable, useful information. The book is intended for first-time
homeowners, but anyone who uses water will benefit from reading this fun little book no matter how they
get their water. The artwork is engaging and explains the concepts covered. “A picture is worth a
thousand words” is the theme of this volume packed with valuable information and an entertaining story
told in pictures.

Reviewer Kat Kennedy says, “I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. I recommend it to anyone wishing to learn
more about water, plumbing, and conservation. It offers valuable information and includes plenty of
references and links for those seeking more. As an informative guide for families wishing to teach their
children about conservation or a helpful reference in the home, All About Water delivers.”

Readers learn about water use including how to safely re-use graywater. Plumbing design is discussed
and illustrated in easy to understand schematics. Chapters and related artwork highlight new technologies,
efficient outdoor irrigation and planting as well as plumbing design, fixtures, features and much more.

A chapter on municipal codes governing public water supplies includes information about the cost of
water, how to read and understand your water bill as well as discussion about the complexities of
municipal water management. Every living thing requires clean water to live and providing that water is a
multifaceted process. The book shows how water managers and plumbing professionals are just as
important to public health and safety as medical professionals.

The book is full of the history of water through the ages, including fun stories of how central water supply
maintenance and indoor plumbing began which add a layer of interesting trivia.
