THE BIG BOOK FOR OUR PLANET

Over 40 of the best-loved authors and illustrators of children's books have pooled their talents in a single volume, honoring one very special planet--the Earth. Here are stories and poems, pictures and photographs, essays and limericks, all sharing a belief that humans must live in harmony with their environment.

Even more special, ten of the authors and illustrators have signed the book--eight have signed on the half-title page and two have signed a matching bookplate that is included but not affixed to the book. A rare gem to have all these signatures in one book.

Notes About Shipping

Media Mail is a cheap, viable option for shipping. However, because it is cheap, it is slower than other choices. Packages shipped via Media Mail are trucked overland (no air), so you can generally estimate how long it will take for a package to reach you based on how far you are from me (New York). Based on customer response, it seems as if destinations along the East Coast take a week. West Coast destinations take approximately 14 days. Hawaii and Alaska take a minimum of 1 month. Times may also increase if there is bad weather along the route, especially during the winter. Remember, there are no guarantees on delivery time. Occasionally things get lost. If you need something in a timely manner, please use Priority.
