Review Quotes: Praise for The Planet We Call Home

"Young readers will appreciate the natural beauty of planet Earth and understand that they can play a part in preserving it. A gentle message lovingly and artfully rendered." -Kirkus Reviews

"Isaac takes readers on a tour of Earth and all its riches. Beginning with a view of our planet from space, the richly hued illustrations close in to highlight Earth's various aspects. . .Youngsters interested in learning about nature and ecology will come to understand the importance of the care and maintenance Earth requires to stay healthy and thriving for every living creature." -Booklist

"Euphonious verse celebrates Earth as it builds to a kid-centric vision of stewardship in this comforting eco-read. Kim's illustrations employ watercolor, crayons, and digital tools to create soft, light-infused scenes of the natural world. The effect is a pristine portrait of ways to inhabit 'the planet we call home.'" -Publishers Weekly
