Based on the touching song "This Pretty Planet" by Tom Chapin and John Forster, this hopeful and whimsically illustrated picture book celebrates the pretty planet we call home. Winds blow. Tides flow. Shooting stars descend. Our lives begin, middle, and end on This pretty planet. From icy tundras to sandy beaches, lush forests to tall mountains, this exuberant picture book journeys around the globe and presents the natural wonders of the planet with a contagious sense of awe and whimsy. Young readers will get lost in the detailed illustrations as the narration serves as a gentle reminder of why we must care for and protect our pretty planet.
"The many allusive details in the illustrations will make adults smile and keep child readers coming back for more. . . . Engaging and true to the message. " -- Kirkus Reviews * October 2020 *
