Glorious spreads of a host of landscapes draw readers in to this call to arms to children everywhere.
The world is a beautiful place and we are in danger of spoiling it! The seas are polluted, the forests are being cut down, the temperatures are rising – all of these things destroy the homes of the living creatures for whom these habits are home. But, it doesn’t have to be like that. We can do something!
The well matched poetic text and beautiful illustrations demonstrate practical ways by which the world can be put right. Fuelled by energy and hope, this will inspire action!
A beautifully illustrated picture book with a powerful message about looking after our AMAZING planet!
