Looking for a different kind of book that shows off kindness and friendship. I picked up a book called Journey to A New Earth that shows love and kindness through nature. It also shows it through the connection of each other.

This one is done beautifully and written well. They show that the light is shown through as all and we are all connected. Friendship and kindness are shown in this book. You can see what happens when something happens to another person or animal in this case.

What Penelope does to help Kobi is something we do not see often. But we should ask it something we all can do. We can listen to his story and maybe even help find his friends. We are from the same earth or place and we are all connected to the earth or and sky.

This book is also an exploration of what all new and what happens after a tragedy. We can all come together and work together. We can love and live together. Do you know that we connect through life-changing events and learn to find ways to persevere and save the earth through this? We are connected to each other along the way.

First and foremost, this book is absolutely one of the cutest books I have ever seen. The pictures are bright, colorful, and so adorable! It makes such a fun book to look at regardless of age.

The story itself… I have to admit, I got the connection part, but I am slightly lost on the “journey” and felt the book abruptly ended. I am sure that a younger child would not notice such a thing, but being an adult; I feel… inadequate for being my age and being left befuddled by a children’s book.

This is certainly a book that I feel my youngest (2nd grade) will read more than once. I did not feel any of the words were too difficult for her. The writing was large and easy to read, and I felt the book wasn’t too long for her to read alone if she wanted. Of course, it would be fun to read together as well!

Journey to a New Earth is a Children's book that is geared toward ages 3-7. I read this book with my 9 and 7 year old son. My 7 year old who struggles sometimes with reading was able to read this book with very little assistance. This book is beautifully illustrated and well written. We see the story of Penelope Panda and Kobi Koala. Kobi's forest home has been destroyed by fire. The boys and I discussed what happens with forests are destroyed by fires. While some of the topics are above the heads of the intended audience, my boys were able to follow along. I love that despite losing friends and homeland, Kobi and Penelope find a deeper connection to our world. This is a great book.
I received a copy of this book through IRead book tours. All thoughts are my own.

A koala named Kobi and a Panda named Penelope met after Kobi escaped a fire and couldn’t find any of his friends. Penelope tells Kobi she will help him find them. As they start walking to find Kobi’s friends they meet a tree who gives them some very helpful thoughts. He shows them that this new world is much better and more beautiful than the world they left.

As the continued their walk they finally came across their friends. And they knew their world was forever changed.

The illustrations were done by Zuzana Svobodova. They were beautiful. Kobi and Penelope were fluffy and had big soulful eyes, and all the other animals, trees, etc. were as cute as they could be.

I loved the positive message in this book, “we are all connected to each other despite how far apart we may be”.

This book is geared toward ages 3-7 but I think it would be good for younger and older children. I loved it and I’m way past that age. If you have a child who loves animals, this book would be perfect for them.
