One World: 24 Hours on Planet Earth by Nicola Davies

Take spectacular tour of Planet Earth and be inspired by the wonders of nature in this collaboration between two award-winners. “Nicola Davies is one of the best children’s writers in the business.” Huffington Post “Jenni Desmond knows just how to make children’s precious imaginations soar.” Guardian Where on Earth are you, right now? It’s late where I am and almost everyone’s asleep, but I’m awake, looking out into the night. Wondering… As the clock strikes midnight, a little girl and her sister visit animals of every shape and size, all around the world – discovering that, in some places, creatures have just started their day, where in others they’re already busy hunting for food. Turning the popular concept of time-zones on its head and combining it with a powerful climate message and delightful illustrations, this book is narrative non-fiction at its most spellbinding.

The subject of the environment continues to dominate children’s publishing, and this uplifting piece of narrative non-fiction brings fresh air to a crowded field* The Daily Telegraph *
Charming and informative with a strong ecological message. * the Bookseller *
