The captivating new companion to international bestsellers Here We Are and What We’ll Build

A father takes his two children on a thrilling out-of-this-world adventure into space and invites them to look back at Earth and the conflicts that have taken place since the beginning of time. This becomes a brief history of the world and a whistle-stop guide to the universe, all rolled into one – and told with Oliver Jeffers's inimitable perspective, wit and exquisite artwork.

Meanwhile Back on Earth gives a unique look at life on Earth with a cosmic perspective – and an enduring message that what binds us together matters more than what sets us apart. A timely story for families everywhere.

In Meanwhile Back on Earth, Oliver Jeffers explores the concepts of dreams and imagination, taking us on a journey that's as much about the universe as it is about the family at its heart. This award-winning children's fiction has been short-listed for its quality and depth.

For fans of Rachel Bright (The Whale Who Wanted More), Jim Field (The Christmas Pig), Tom Percival (Finn's Little Fibs), Kes Gray (Daisy and the Trouble With Unicorns), and Axel Scheffler (Mother Goose's Nursery Rhymes).
