Chorus
Who we Are Are
What we do
We choose nature and not concrete
Help protect
Know their worth
Be good stewards of the earth
Verses
The Sea Otters
One thing depends on another
But when we pollute animals take cover
Feel the earth
Protect the land
Save the earth
Know it’s worth
—
The Ducks
Every time you BLINK
Some could go EXTINCT
We could be NICE
But we’re losing ICE
Don’t destroy PROTECT
We all need TREES
Butterflies and BEES
WE ARE STEWARDS NOT POLLUTERS
—
The Penguins
We Protect, We can help
Trees are what holds up the world
Don’t pollute, help the earth
Protecting life now protects our future
—
The Silver Sloths
Be a steward not a polluter
We must protect, do what is right!
Save the environment ….. Animals need our help
Animals need our help
How would you help
Take it to mind
We don’t have time

About the Book
Here We Are
Written by Oliver Jeffers
Here We Are: Notes for Living on Planet Earth by Oliver Jeffers is a children’s book that serves as a gentle, humorous, and heartfelt “user’s guide” to our planet, created for his son but with universal appeal. It uses his signature illustrations to explain Earth’s land, sea, sky, and its diverse inhabitants, emphasizing kindness, tolerance, and the idea that we are all connected, despite our differences. The book covers basic concepts like day/night, taking care of our bodies, and the vastness of space, all while encouraging empathy and care for the planet and each other,
