The EARTH Book

Todd Parr books are some of my favorite books to use with my students for speech therapy. I love the illustrations, the simple sentences used, and the kid friendly messages. I am able to use the book to target so many language goals and the kids love it.

This book puts out educating little ones in doing what's right to save the earth in a very simple way. Illustrations and written content are captivating.

Another fantastic book from popular children's author Todd Parr. His unique style of colorful illustrations and simple text are a smash hit with preschool and kindergarten audiences every time. This is the perfect book to read to your preschool or kindergarten class or child on Earth Day. Each page highlights one way young children can help make the world a better place followed by a "because" statement. Adding because statements makes the message in this book even more powerful. It's not about just telling kids to do something, but also giving them the reasons why it's important; therefore it becomes more meaningful to them. Parr also has a great sense of humor and knows his audience well as evidenced by the mention of underwear in the detachable poster that is included on the last page of the book. The Earth Book is sure to become a favorite with your child or class as they squeal with delight at the very thought of putting their underwear in the refrigerator!

Super cute book for earth day. All 3 of my kids(2,4,7), loved it and it got them talking about ways to help earth!

Oh how I love this book! It's not too far to the hippie side or to the first world priveledge side. It's right in the middle, perfect for kids, telling them to be good stewards of their environment in small and big ways. The pictures are interesting and my kids were "reading" it to me after a few times. I got this as a fun and inexpensive retirement gift for a friend who was eager to go on his next adventure across the world.

As with other books for small children by Todd Parr, The EARTH book is a delight in words and pictures. It explains in simple language some important ideas about the earth and engenders a love of the planet in small children. Every parent is encouraged to get this book and others by Parr and read them to their children. Pre-schools would do well to have these books available as well.

Cuuuuute! I have a few small bones to pick, if you're particular like me you might care. 1) I don't like the line about eating everything on your plate- I don't think that's an awfully healthy way to look at food. I do like that it says to save your leftovers. We'll focus on that part when we read it. 2) I wish that the bit about water conservation had a justification that was a little more direct- saving water is not really about keeping the ocean blue. Everything else seems to be much more directly connected, and I feel the author could have done a little bit better on that particular bit. Really these are small complaints, we'll definitely keep the book. I think it does an excellent job of helping kids realized that they can do a lot to help take care of the earth, and my son LOVES the pictures.

I read this book to my PreK students on Earth Day. They loved it and asked for it to be read over and over. We love Todd Parr!💗

Ótimo livro de um excelente escritor, porém não se confundam... Esse não é o "The Earth Book" e sim o "I Love The Earth" que é uma adaptação que contém somente partes do livro "The Earth Book". Mas não deixa de ser bom também além dessa diferença que não me atentei na hora da compra.

I teach English in German Kindergartens and used this book to talk about our earth and how to keep our earth clean and healthy. Through the pics and easy words the kids had lots of fun and understood the "rules". Also the poster was a great help. All in all, we had lots of fun with the book.

Es un libro precioso, educativo, divertido, original. Lo recomiendo totalmente. tapas duras y de buena calidad. A mis hijos les encanta.

I read “The Earth Book” to a 2nd year elementary class in an Italian school. For part of “book week” the school asked if some parents could come in and read to the class. I picked the book because the it was main theme of the school activities this year and for the simple and easy language/concepts, considering I was reading to a class who are only learning English. The children loved the book and the illustrations and were able to easily comprehend the messages on each page. I would really recommend this book and it even inspired the teachers of the school to research other titles by the same author that they could use in class in the future.

Great to book. I love Todd Parr, He is very clever to write and He's books is really good to use with children under 5.
