EarthlingsTeam

We are delighted to recommend a new children’s book That’s Why We Don’t Eat Animals written and illustrated by Ruby Roth. Ruby was inspired in part by Earthlings, and has created the first book for children to explain tough topics like factory farms and the disappearing rainforest in the context of a vegan diet.
