Hello, Earth!: Poems to Our Planet

Hello, Earth!: Poems to Our Planet
by Joyce Sidman (Author) and Miren Asiain Lora (Illustrator)
@ Amazon | Bookshop | IndieBound

Booktalk: We walk on Earth’s surface every day, but how often do we wonder about the incredible planet around us? From the molten cracks below to the shimmering moon above, explore the wonders of the natural world.

Snippet:
HELLO, EARTH!

It’s your children.
Some of your children —
the human ones.
We have been studying you, Earth,
but we long to learn more.

We want to ask you
a few questions.

Wilderness

Wilderness
by John Muir (Author) and Giovanni Manna (Illustrator)
@ Amazon | Bookshop | IndieBound

Booktalk: A collection of some of John Muir’s most memorable and inspirational words reminds us of a shared responsibility and inescapable bond–that all inhabitants of this planet “travel the Milky Way together.”

Snippet: The sun shines not on us but in us.

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
