內容簡介
我的朋友 地球我的朋友--地球，在冬天睡了好長一覺醒來，側著頭，聽著春天的各種聲音--農夫耕種聲、車子呼嘯聲、動物鳴叫聲。白天，她看小種子發芽、蜘蛛結網；夜晚，她安撫猩猩入眠。她會幫斑馬寶寶找媽媽，也會到海邊和鯨魚玩耍。夏天，她會撒下好多水雨水；秋天，她會吹起風，讓葉子飄落；冬天，她會哄熊睡覺，為牠蓋上白雪棉被，靜靜一旁看顧、等待，迎接春天。
紐伯瑞《Sarah, Plain and Tall》得獎作家 Patricia MacLachlan創作，將地球化身為小女孩，活潑溫柔地和動物和環境互動，傳遞她對萬物的愛。互動設計多元，有時是面部表情小翻頁，呈現地球睜開一隻眼，慢慢甦醒的概念。有時挖空，呈現地球少女隱身在草叢，透過縫隙觀察萬物的畫面等等。非常適合地球日，感受人與環境、人與地球的書。
