I adore this book - this is the first time I have put a book down and immediately gone to Goodreads to write a review. It is THAT good. Librarian and bookseller friends, if you don't know this book, get it NOW! The narrator is Quinn, explaining what a visitor would need to know about the earth - the physical earth, the people, families and homes in all their variety, the birds and animals, the weather, and much more. The pictures are absolutely gorgeous - Caldecott medal-worthy. The story inspires us to take care of each other and the earth, and while not glossing over painful things - wars, refugees, illness - it is hopeful and helpful; compassionate and caring. As a librarian I am partial to the library scene showing multiple acts of kindness, but the entire book has pages you want to linger on and explore in detail. This is a perfect gift book for any family (it just made the top of my to-give list!) and will be savored by children and adults alike. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

In this picture book, a boy writes a letter to an imagined alien, explaining all the things he will need to know about Earth and the people who live here--and adding a postscript asking what the alien might look like. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Sophie Blackall highlights so many aspects that make our world wonderful but my favorite has to be her representation of disabled individuals and those who experience blindness or are deaf. Going to lengths to share the ASL alphabet and the Braille alphabet is impressive.
I'm kind of shocked this was not on Caldecott honor lists.... ( )
