Touch the Earth | Julian Lennon, Bart Davis

Mehso-so

3 ⭐If Julian wasn‘t the son of rockstars, I‘m not sure he would have gotten this book published. The book is fine. It‘s very similar to Press Here. Except in this instance, they‘re in a plane going to different places on earth. Each place has an issue. It could be pollution in the water driving the fish away, a desert that needs irrigation to grow crops, etc. In this book, I like the illustrations better than I like the story.

LibrarianRyan I wish Julie Lennon and co-writer Bart Davis had either chosen to write an environmental story or write an action story and not try to combine the two together. This book is fine, but nothing special. 7d

Libby is dangerous for me- These are added to my kindle library, plus I have 9 books on hold. I have absolutely no self control when books are free at the click of a button!!🤪😱

Amiable I just had two books become available today from my Libby holds —I was trying to space them better! It never works out the way I plan it, though. 😖😀 3w

This book was everything I want in a historical fiction book. A young woman in post-WWI England makes a bold new friends running Hazelbourne's Motorcycle and Flying Club who changes her life. It's a book about class and war and pandemics and societal change and feminism and racism/ xenophobia and so many other things. I absolutely adored it.

story of a child who discovers their “superpowers“—like flying and making things disappear—aren't so super after all. But when things go wrong, the real superhero turns out to be someone unexpected!

It‘s a great reminder that real superpowers, like love and care, come from the people closest to us.

My usual trio: an audiobook, a middle grade book and a bedtime book (which happens to be my #doublespin and #authoramonth book!)
