"A beautiful picture book alive with hope and possibilities"
A little girl restores a hot dry plain to leafy, vibrant forest in the course of this beautiful picture book. She does it by planting a seed, watering and caring for it, keeping it sheltered from the hot sun. As she grows, so does the tree, producing fruits and more seeds, which also grow.
Meanwhile, beneath the ground, roots are finding water, drinking it up so that it finds its way back into the sky to fall as rain, transforming the land into river once again. Told in lyrical, uplifting verse and with glowing mixed media illustrations, this is a very special picture book indeed.
Its message of hope, resilience and our power to make a difference, no matter how small we are, is delivered clearly, elegantly and with real power. Don’t miss.
