A journey through five different ecosystems worldwide to heighten our awareness of what life means and how we, as humans, are part of its diversity.

What do the French countryside, the Amazon rainforest, Barcelona, the North Pole, and the Great Barrier Reef have in common? Not a lot, it might seem, but in fact, they’re all linked by living species and complex natural phenomena. This book explores themes of interdependence and fragility, taking readers on a globetrotting adventure with lush illustrations and sharp writing. Six different landscapes encourage reflection on global warming, the environment, history, and humanity’s place in the world, to better understand the challenges of today and tomorrow. Winner, Prix Amerigo-Vespucci 2021.
