Let's Be Earthlings cover

A little alien touches down on our amazing planet. Able to shape-shift into every form of Earth life, he becomes all kinds of Earth creatures, from a beaver to a chameleon, from a frog to a kangaroo, a puppy, even a flea - and then a flower-bud and a tree. The visitor finds a constant succession of exciting surprises on our Earth - there is only one thing missing. A friend to share it all with.

Mary Murphy's simple yet profound words and images show young children the beauty and diversity of life on Earth - and in doing so, help them understand that they need to look after our precious planet.

"A classic Mary Murphy story, what seems to be a simple narrative is a much more complex examination on what is means to be human…"

* Irish Examiner *

"Young readers will marvel at Earth’s diversity and think deeply about how to care for it. It’s a warm, thoughtful introduction to nature and our place within it. Highly recommended."

* School Reading List *

"What a joy to indulge in some childlike wonderment at all of the things that make our Earth a special place, particularly in these difficult times."

* Irish Tim
