On Earth by G. Brain Karas

Climb aboard a giant spaceship . . . the Earth! In glorious art, G. Brian Karas illuminates our Earth

winter turns into spring. All these amazing things happen because the Earth is constantly in motion,
spinning and circling, gliding and tilting. As passengers of the Earth, our voyage never ends!
