Beautiful illustrations, I love that it has inclusivity amongst the characters! As a former preschool teacher I also appreciate that the message is straight forward and simple! A book that parents, teachers and students will love and enjoy!

This delightful children’s book about our earth is a must-have for your home or classroom library!
The concepts of conservation are easily spelled out for a child’s understanding, and examples are given. The accompanying illustrations are easy on the eyes and add vibrancy to the content!
Overall, a really excellent addition to your child or student’s book list!

I really like this rhyming book about how to save the planet. It shows all kinds of ways in a way any child can understand. The illustrations are appealing and go well with the story being told. From recycling to using a bicycle this is a great way to save the planet and if parents read it, it is a reminder to them. Great for school and home library.

A sweet, simple story about the importance of our Earth. Probably better suited for preschool-age children

Very cute children's book explaining the importance of protecting our Earth and minimizing waste.
The illustrations were very cute and helped with the understanding the concepts talked about.
The content was easy to understand and was able to push the important points on a level of understanding for the most part. The only reason this is a 4-star for me is because my children do not know what a carbon footprint is. I wish there was a page that touched on that to help further push the point across.
Thank you NetGalley, Jane Calame, and Atmosphere Press for allowing me to review.

This is a great introduction to caring for the Earth for young children. I especially thought the illustrations were fabulous. They were clear for young readers and really cute. I especially appreciated diverse representation in the illustrations.
For the most part the language was simple and clear without being condescending. I did struggle with the rhyming though - the rhythm was odd in some places.
Overall a good book for preschool and younger elementary on a really important topic!

This was cute. Nothing groundbreaking, but a nice way to start building awareness. The illustrations fit the narrative style very well, too.

This was a lovely book to read. I appreciated the fact that it was not over complicated but still used “wow” vocabulary which would expose little ones to a variety of new words. I loved the rhyming and the use of the illustrations to support teaching children about caring for our planet.

This is a great book that focuses on the importance of everyone, including children, to take care of the earth. Illustrations are great!

As a former elementary school teacher, I was so excited to check out this book! The illustrations are beautiful and I love that the suggestions mentioned feel actionable for young readers! I also love the layout and feel like it is very age-appropriate.
I absolutely recommend this book as I think it presents complex information in a way that is perfect for young readers!
Thank you so much to the publisher and to NetGalley for the e-arc in exchange for an honest review.

I really liked this book. I love the easy reading rhyming text and tips on how to save the world by turning off the tap, recycling, putting on a jumper instead of putting the heating higher etc... I think children will enjoy this book and it has lots of conversation starters. Thank you for the opportunity to read and review this book.

This is a nice little book to teach the importance of keeping our earth clean and safe. It's more important than ever before to teach our children ways to take care of the environment so that generations to come have a better life. The book shares easy ways we can be eco friendly on a daily basis and talks about why these things are important.

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. A book for kids explaining about how there is just one earth and how kids can help keep it going for future generations.

Colourful and engaging. What a fabulous way to introduce the importance of looking after the planet to your little one.
Very important issues were introduced in a way that was informative but also kept them entertained.
The illustrations were colourful and really helped keep focus.
A brilliant book to read with your little one, this will open up wider discussions and may even create a new passion in your child.

Our Earth is a guiding light to those who still think that everything that we got from God is granted for nothing. This Nature has given us all that we need to survive with whole happiness but we as a careless and irresponsible child put it side without any remorse. This picture book tells us about the importance of our earth without any fake expression from more fake activists.
Content was good and so does the message. With a rhyming pattern author chose to guide young readers to understand the importance of earth, that we live in. We must reduce carbon footprints and try to use as less energy as we can which is non-renewable.
In Hindu culture, mainly in India, Earth is considered as a Mother because whatever ever got to survive is given by our mother earth and we believe that everything thing, that we took from her, must be given back to her. Reason why Hindus' ancestors consider earth as mother and connected it with culture and religion, is that, people who even are not educated are wise enough to follow the traits with utmost sense of devotion and care for what gives them their life.
Here in this picture book also the importance that has been given to our earth and the way it was explained is very simple to grasp and follow. Switching-off lights when not in use or using bicycles more than fossil fuel based automobiles is something which we can do without any materialistic or financial approach.
We can save us from winter by wearing more woolen clothes rather than using thermostats to warm the whole room. Use quilts than heaters. And, as I said earlier, Walk and use bicycles than using automobiles that need fossil fuels to run and spread poisonous gases in air further increasing global warming.
We do not need environment or climate activists but to self-realisation on by how we can help this nature by not exploiting it by any means. This is, I say, is not just for children but for adults too, to realise their mistake, learn and correct it as soon as possible. There are many such wrongdoing that we knew but all in vain because we do not take proper actions to curb our comfort demands.
Children will surely learn from this and it will help them understand from their early young age on what can be done to save our home, Our Earth.
I like the book and its illustrations also, simple and relevant ones.
