Earth and Sky

Explore the mysteries of the Earth and beyond in Earth and Sky, a Lift the Flap and Learn book. Earth and Sky takes readers from the confines of our one and only home planet, Earth, up into the heavens and beyond. The Sun, the Moon, and the Solar System itself are all stops on this epic journey. Earth and Sky begins in intimate terms that kids can understand — the ground under their feet; the town in which they live; the trees, rivers, and mountains that surround them. From there, a curious glance into the sky leads naturally to questions about the clouds, the stars, and space travel — with engaging answers that are only a fun twist, flip, or pull away! Using vivid examples and simple text, writer Pascale Hédelin tackles this endlessly fascinating subject with disarming clarity. Children will delight at the ways in which these endlessly absorbing mysteries are laid bare — and then so playfully complemented by illustrator Laurent Richard’s mix of vibrancy and detail. By merging together the timeless subjects of geology, geography, meteorology, and astronomy, Earth and Sky becomes a book that is as valuable to budding students as it is just plain fun. Let the journey begin!
