Product Details
Here: The Dot We Call Home is a simple and enchanting book that invites children to see themselves as both descendants and ancestors, and caretakers of our beautiful planet. Here: The Dot We Call Home begins with a child finding clues that others have lived in her house before her and wondering about them, as well as about those who will come after her. The more she wonders, the more her sense of home expands, stretching to include an entire planet. The author of Here: The Dot We Call Home, Laura Alary, invites readers along for the ride, zooming through time and space to the outer reaches of our solar system for a new perspective on the planet we share.
Here: The Dot We Call Home shows how the child marvels: How can something so big seem so small? But also: How can something so small seem so big? Overwhelmed by the mess that humans have left behind, in the end she realizes that there is only one thing to do: start where she is. In spare and simple words, Here: The Dot We Call Home helps children begin to think of themselves as both descendants and ancestors, and to comprehend that people of every place and time share one home, and the task of looking after it.
