Our Big Home: An Earth Poem

Reach for this book when your child starts asking big questions about where they belong or begins to feel a sense of isolation from the world around them. It is an ideal choice for a quiet bedtime or a classroom session focused on empathy and environmental stewardship. The rhythmic, poetic text helps children visualize the invisible threads that connect every living thing: the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the soil we walk upon. Through gentle metaphors and vibrant illustrations, Linda Glaser introduces the concept of global citizenship to children aged 4 to 8. This book provides a comforting sense of scale, making the vast world feel like a cozy, shared home. It encourages a shift from 'me' to 'we,' fostering a natural sense of gratitude for the environment and a foundational understanding of our collective responsibility to care for the Earth.
