‘Work up an appetite with a 3km jog around the mega roast chicken. It would just about fit in Central Park.’
The Biggest Footprint is a fascinating and gorgeous book for children. By ‘smooshing’ all the humans on earth into one giant, Rob and Tom Sears show how our actions affect the planet and what we can do to make sure we can restore our earth to a more natural state, and not treat it as a resource to plunder. It will make you laugh and think, and we couldn’t wait to show you some of its wonderful pages.
