Well, over two-thirds of the Earth's surface is water (oceans). Of the rest, quite a bit is desert or mountains or ice. So there is a lot more blue (water) than green (covered with plants) when you look at Earth from Space. That's why Earth looks blue.

You school library has some good books about the planets. Take a look at My picture book of the planets, by Nancy E. Krulik, 523.4 kru.
