From the publisher:
We walk on Earth&;s surface every day, but how often do we wonder about the incredible planet around us? From the molten cracks below to the shimmering moon above, Hello, Earth! explores the wonders of the natural world. This playful journey across our puzzle-piece continents does not hesitate to ask questions&;even of the Earth itself!  Joyce Sidman&;s imaginative poems encourage boundless curiosity, and Miren Asiain Lora&;s stunning paintings capture the beauty of Earth&;s ecosystems, creatures, and powerhouse plants. The book concludes with extensive scientific material to foster further learning about how the earth works, from water cycles to plate tectonics to the origin of ocean tides. A gorgeous, expansive celebration of science and art, Hello, Earth! is a book to cherish in whatever landscape you call home.
