This author has a magical way of bringing quiet truth and humanity to children and to indeed adults. The illustrations bring the miracile of the universe to us as well as the words which tell us that we all are connected. I fell in love with these humble animals as well as everyone I know who has seen the way Schimmel's caring hands have depicted them.

Healing for young and old alike happens with the sharing of this book. The pictures and verse, speak the ancient truth of all things being related!! This is one that should be in every class room and home around the globe. It reminds us as elders, and teaches the small ones that we all depend on one another!! Mitakuye Oyasin!! We are related to all things, All my relations! Aho! Remember the Peace.

my son has all three of these books and he loves them. beautiful pictures and an easy to read text teach children to respect and take care of all of natures children.highly recommend this series.

This book combines glorious pictures of the animals we share this Earth with and meaningful words that remind us that this Earth isn't just ours, it was made for us and all creatures. A classic perfect for any animal lover or those who just want to... well, remember.

The combination of a letter from "Mother Nature" with the outstanding, dramatic paintings of Schim, creates a book that belongs in the classroom and school library in every school in America.

This book, along with Children of the Earth, are excellant books for children to learn about the relationship between people and all other elements of the earth. Beautiful pictures, easy to understand text and good lessons on taking care of our planet. 9 grandchildren have said they are their favorite 2 books.

This pictures are gorgeous in this book. My 8 yo daughter has two and I'm ordering the third. She loves them!

This artist is truly a wonderful artist and a wonderful detail of his work is that it is mostly all acrylic. He has a great talent, and you must let the pictures speak for themselves. If you or someone you know loves animals, this would be a great gift regardless of age.

The art work alone is wonderful. The lesson to be learned is for young and old. I have bought this book and his others a gifts for my Grandchildren, even for the ones that have not arrived yet. This book teaches our young ones early how to live in peace with all living things and earth.

This is an exceptional book that provokes thoughtful conversation between you and your child.
