Our Planet: The One Place We All Call Home by Matt Whyman

5.0

A gorgeous book about our planet. Our home. About animals, about plants, about what we could do to save the planet, because we can. Quite often I avoid books that preach about OMG we are doing bad and we need to do better and the world will end because it just makes me sad (and I am already sad enough most of the time, especially lately). But this one I couldn't leave and I am glad I brought it with me as it was an absolutely stunning book featuring tons of information and the preach levels aren't too high, it was all very nice and polite (if that is the correct word, I am sure in Dutch I could do better). It was way more positive than most books like this. We can save the world. There are possibilities. There are still chances. We just have to grab them.
The art in the book is beautiful, the photographs are pretty. The information about animals and various biomes was interesting and fun to read.
