Seen from space, our planet looks blue. This is because almost 70 percent of Earth’s surface is covered with water. Earth is the only planet with liquid water --- and therefore the only planet that can support life. All water is connected. Every raindrop, lake, underground river and glacier is part of a single global well. Water has the power to change everything --- a single splash can sprout a seed, quench a thirst, provide a habitat, generate energy and sustain life. How we treat the water in the well will affect every species on the planet, now and for years to come. One Well shows how every one of us has the power to conserve and protect our global well. One Well is part of CitizenKid: A collection of books that inform children about the world and inspire them to be better global citizens.

Beautifully Illustrated, Gently Written Read Aloud
A beautifully illustrated and informative book that I use as an educational read aloud for my children. It is written gently enough for even young children to understand and also aims to give awareness of water conservation.

Better then expected.
Bought this book for a 8 year old boy to read together and discuss an important issue of water preservation. The book is amazing quality. Paper, pictures, format is all very pleasing and engaging. The discussion about water on Earth is developing slowly and turns in to a real eye opener. Very very recommended for parents and school libraries.
