A remarkable book April 22, 2000
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I actually bought the book because I love the illustrations. At a later date, I read the book to a class of 6 year olds who were absolutely entranced both by the illustrations and by the concept of Mother Earth writing a letter. The ensuing discussions and suggestions of what they could do for Mother Earth. How encouraging it is to see the next generation developing such a love for nature through books such as this. I look forward to further books by Schim Schimmel.

I have to disagree with the reviewer from the horn book. This is a fantastic book for children and adults. It teaches one of the most important lessons there is, with stunningly beautiful illustrations. My 5 year old daughter and I spend lots of time looking at the pictures, trying to find all the animals and planets, and talking about what the author was trying to say with each picture. She loves it, and so do I.

I bought this book for my children last year. It is one of our favorites. My six year old asked me to read it to his first grade class druing an Earth Day celebration. I have also shared it with my third grade class and they loved it. It is a book that has no time elements or age group attached to it. It's illustrations are stunning and its message is powerful. By far, it is a favorite within my home!
