Mother Earth is Weeping

Product Information

The themes explored in the book – habitat destruction, pollution, climate change, land use and poverty – could not be more current, nor the idea that young people may become passionate advocators for environmental issues Importantly, I think, the book ends on a positive note and a call to activism for everyone, whatever age, to be involved in making better decisions and choices concerning the very real global environmental threats and issues facing the world today. Mother Earth Day is an annual international day to celebrate our amazing Earth, and share the message of the importance of reducing climate change and protecting our Earth from human destruction. As part of our Wonder Days theme week, I have planned a range of activities, with videos, photos and PowerPoints to help give you ideas.

I was a primary school teacher (specialising in Early Years and Special Education) before becoming an author and I draw heavily on the experiences and knowledge gained during that time when writing my stories. Indeed many stories typically have an educational slant and are great resources for teaching and learning. If you are looking for a different version of this, let us know by using the 'Make a Request' tab above and we will see what we can do. Our Mother Earth Colouring Sheet features a lovely, hand-drawn image of Mother Earth showcasing earth in all its glory. This resource makes for a brilliant addition to a lesson on nature, the environment, recycling, and more. Your learners will love bringing colour to the image and displaying it proudly in their classroom or at home.I wrote many plays, songs, poems and stories for my pupils and the school. But, it wasn't until a school's inspector read some of my work and encouraged me to publish them, that I even considered becoming an author. Mother Earth shares her worries for the future, but is reassured by Moon and Sun that ‘she might not escape unscathed but she can still be saved’.
