Weston Woods Studios has created a delightful audio production of this extraordinary picture book by author-illustrator Sophie Blackall. The story is magical in its simplicity yet remarkably grand. A child writes a letter to a visitor from outer space, describing what they will need to know about planet Earth if they come. In a clear, friendly voice and relaxed pacing, narrator Dani Martinek guides listeners (and potential visitors) through a multitude of wonders that shape our vastly diverse world. A nuanced musical score and creative sound effects enhance Martinek's narration and further enliven the book's beautifully detailed illustrations. This is a captivating listen/read for the entire family and an encouraging reminder to appreciate our precious planet and each other. Blackall's author's note explains her story's international origins. S.A.A. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2021]
