   Children possess a natural gift of wonder and are endowed with what Harvard biologist E.O. Wilson calls "biophilia," an innate enchantment for the living beings who populate our planet.

This book offers an alphabet of gratitude that builds on youngsters' sense of "radical amazment" for Earth's living creatures, from alligators and apple trees, egrets, eagles and flying fish right down to "X" (the unknown, the mystery of it all) in every yak and yam.  The lessons are accompanied by delightful illustrations from Roco Baviera.

Reverend Gary Kowalski

Earth Day: An Alphabet Book is a children's alphabet story that celebrates the immense variety of flora and fauna alive on earth from apricots and alligators to zucchini and zebras. Beautifully illustrated by spare, graceful paintings of creature and plant, each page presents one or two letters of the alphabet and gives examples from nature of words beginning with that letter. A tale of wonder unfolds, ending with simple gratitude for the existence of earth and its immense variety of life. Written by a Unitarian-Universalist minister, "Earth Day" will educate and appeal to the preschool audience.--  Midwest Book Review
