“In this beautiful picture book, readers are shown the remarkable diversity of nature and are encouraged to connect with it through the metaphor of home. Kate is a likable character whose curiosity and openness to the world around her turn an ordinary walk in the woods into an adventure. Simple text that emphasizes dialogue underscores the story’s message about connection, while the beautiful artwork uses earthy tones to invoke the spirit of the forest. Kate the Earthling invites readers to see the environment in which they live through new eyes and to feel at home in the natural world that surrounds them.”

“The older Puritans had trampled down all fleshly impulses; these newer Puritans trampled no less self-righteously upon the spiritual cravings. But in the increasingly spiritistic inclination of physics itself, Behaviorism and Fundamentalism had found a meeting place. Since the ultimate stuff of the physical universe was now said to be multitudinous and arbitrary “quanta” of the activity “spirits”, how easy was it for the materialistic and the spiritistic to agree? At heart, indeed, they were never very far apart in mood, though opposed in doctrine. The real cleavage was between the truly spiritual view on the one hand, and the spiritistic and materialistic on the other. Thus the most materialistic of Christian sects and the most doctrinaire of scientific sects were not long in finding a formula to express their unity, their denial of all those finer capacities which had emerged to be the spirit of man.”
