Description
A stunning and timely picture book asks fourteen critical questions to encourage active thinking and discussion about our one and only planet.
Does Earth feel calm?
Does Earth feel curious?
Does Earth feel hurt?
Does Earth feel heard?
With spare prose and evocative paintings, author-illustrator Marc Majewski implores readers to think more deeply about what our only planet is telling us, ultimately asking-what do you want Earth to feel?
This compelling narrative follows the planet's relationship with humans and engages with themes around empathy and environmentalism; a perfect book to spark conversations and inspire a new generation of young leaders.
