If You Come to Earth

A generous, big-hearted celebration of humanity and this planet. Lovely and perfect for inquisitive little ones who just want to inhale facts.

I've been waiting to read this book ever since I first saw it was coming out, and, happily, I was not disappointed. A child writes a letter to a visitor from outer space sharing everything one needs to know—where people live, facial expressions, weather we see, ways of moving around, the work adults do, food we eat, the creatures that live here, music, things that are part of nature, things made by people—everything one needs to know about our planet.

Charming. Kid-friendly. Fun. Informative.
