About this title

From the Author

A beautifully illustrated picture book about the earth.
This Is Our Earth is a beautifully illustrated picture book about the earth. It is written on two levels so that it may be enjoyed by children of different ages. The simpler text is a poem that runs along the top pages, and the teaching text for older children runs along the bottom pages. The poem has also been set to music and can be found in the back of the book. This is a wonderful teaching tool for teachers and students studying the environment.
