My Friend Earth
Beloved author Patricia MacLachlan has created a poetic text that lovingly shows just how good a friend Earth is to all of us. Spectacularly illustrated by rising star Francesca Sanna, the bold colors and die-cut pages throughout invite both the very youngest readers and the most sophisticated book collectors to explore the magical world within.
