Here: The Dot We Call Home

“This is my home. I live here. But I am not the first…” The child in the story wonders: How can something so big seem so small? And conversely:  How can something so small seem so big?   Finally, almost overwhelmed by the mess that humans have left behind, in the end she realizes that there is only one thing to do: start where she is. 

In few and simple words, Here: The Dot We Call Home helps children begin to think of themselves as both descendants and ancestors, and to understand that people of every place and time share one home, and the task of looking after it.
