# I, Humanity - Hardcover

by **Jeffrey Bennett** (Author)

**Winner:**  
2017 NSTA, Outstanding Science Trade Books  
Nautilus Book Awards, Gold, Children's Illustrated Nonfiction

**Story Time From Space Official Selection**

**Part of a set of books launched to the International Space Station through NASA's Story Time from Space program, read aloud by astronauts for children around the world**

Written in the first person with the viewpoint of a narrator who represents the human race throughout history, _I, Humanity_ tells the story of what we now know about the universe and how we learned it. It begins with the ancient view of a small, flat Earth, and page-by-page shows how we've gradually learned about our planet, its orbit, and its place in the vast universe. The book is designed to work on three different levels: education, perspective, and inspiration. The educational aspect comes in the factual content of the story, the perspective element involves enabling children learn to see themselves and our planet in a new light, and the inspirational component comes in helping children dream of how they can help make the world a better place.
