This interactive book immerses children in a fun and unique journey. Jump aboard the White Feather Flier, a magical plane that can go wherever you want!

  • Just press a button printed on the page, and point the plane up in the air to fly, or down to land it!
  • Fly to the top of a mountain!
  • Send clean water to thirsty people!
  • Dive deep into the ocean (the Flier turns into a submarine!) to pick up pollution and bring back the fish!
  • Explore the planet, meet new people, and help make the world a better place!

The Flier's mission is to transport readers around the world, to engage them in helping to save the environment, and to teach one and all to love our planet.
An inspiring, lyrical story, rooted in Lennon's life and work, Touch the Earth is filled with beautiful illustrations that bring the faraway world closer to young children. The book includes words to a special poem written by Julian Lennon, specifically for Touch the Earth.
The first book of a bestselling trilogy that includes Heal the Earth and Love the Earth. A portion of the proceeds from book sales will go to support the environmental and humanitarian efforts of the White Feather Foundation, the global environmental and humanitarian organization that Lennon founded to promote education, health, conservation, and the protection of indigenous culture.

Today on Nonna's Corner I am sharing the picture book TOUCH THE EARTH  by Julian Lennon with Bart Davis. This children's picture book offers an interactive imagination experience for young readers. Grab a cup of coffee and let your imagination soar as we take flight. You'll want to add this to your wee one's bookshelf.



Come jump aboard the White Feather Flier, a magical plane in TOUCH THE EARTH written by Julian Lennon along with Bart Davis. I had a feeling this tale would be special and I was right. Beautifully illustrated by Smijana Coh children will love meeting the flyer.  Julian Lennon takes young explorers on a magical flight designed to get their young mind's thinking about and protecting the environment. One of the things I love is the nontechnology interactive aspect to this story. The story encourages readers to use their imagination as they push the button and tilt the book up or down to fly over mountains and swoop down low. TOUCH THE EARTH is lyrical yet simplistic as we help gather water, dive into the deep and meet new people. The book also includes a beautiful poem written by Julian specifically for this book. It gently reminds all of us how important our planet is especially for the wee one's we are reading to. This is the first book in a planned trilogy and a portion of the proceeds from books sales will go to support the environmental and humanitarian efforts of the White Feather Foundation. This would be perfect for the classroom and a great gift to celebrate Earth Day. Let your imagination soar!
