This Pretty Planet

“The many allusive details in the illustrations will make adults smile and keep child readers coming back for more….Engaging and true to the message.” – Kirkus Reviews * October 2020 *“The illustrations are bright and filled with details….A lovely choice for starting conversations with small groups or one-on-one. Many songs have been turned into picture books, but this one is particularly deft at capturing hope and possibility, which defined the original work. It’s a sweet accompaniment to Earth Day sing-alongs.” – School Library Journal * December 2020 *“The lyrics…offer inspiration for some really magical illustrations. The fanciful detail-rich pictures, on full-bleed single pages, double-page spreads, and panels, celebrate the song’s message to care for our planet.” – The Horn Book Book Bundles * May 6, 2021 *
