A hands-on introduction to Earth’s geography

Rivers, lakes, oceans, valleys, hills, and mountains shape this introduction to the planet’s varied landscapes. Rhyming verse and illustrations introduce the features, while secondary text adds more detailed, curriculum-focused facts and invites children to connect geography with their own surroundings. The book also unfolds and folds back into a freestanding globe, making its physical form part of the exploration. Its combination of local perspective and global geography gives the read-aloud a clear way to move between familiar places and the wider world.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children beginning to explore geography and Earth’s natural features
  • Families and educators seeking an illustrated read-aloud with additional factual text
  • Children who enjoy interactive, fold-out book formats

Book overview

Selected as one of Oprah's Favorite Things 2024 A Parents Magazine Best Book of the Year

As Oprah says on OprahDaily.com, 'These three beautifully designed books will introduce kids to life underwater, the galaxies above, and their own world here on earth.'

'[A] beautifully illustrated geographical primer.' - Washington Post

Explore Earth's amazing geography with this unique picture book that transforms into a freestanding globe.

Selected by Parents Magazine as a Best Book of the Year, Our World is a colorful, creative celebration of our planet. This read-aloud introduction to geography is also a beautifully designed object which opens and folds back into a sturdy circular globe fastened by a hidden magnetic closure.

Our World teaches young children to identify and experience Earth's diverse geography through rhyming verse and lush illustrations of its features - from rivers, lakes, and oceans deep to valleys, hills, and mountains steep. Secondary text offers more detailed, curriculum-focused facts and encourages children to consider their own living environments, presenting a personal perspective set against a global backdrop.

Inspiring, informative, and one-of-a-kind, this artful homage to Earth is both an invitation to explore the natural world and an object to be treasured for years to come.
