Description

A powerful and moving picture book showing how wildlife campaigners can help endangered Orangutans.

The Emerald Forest follows the story of an Orangutan and her family who live in a vast emerald forest, bursting with life. Their world is shattered when one day, a monstrous machine tears the Orangutan’s tree from the ground. The family is forced to leave the emerald forest, but where can they go?

This powerful and moving picture book is set in tropical Sumatra, an island that has lost almost half its rainforest cover in recent years. The story graphically describes the reactions of an orangutan family to the destruction of their age-old home and shows how wildlife campaigners are bringing hope for the future.
