Description
A modern-day "green" classic illustrated by Bob Staake -- now in paperback!
Perfect for springtime reading! In this poetic picture book with environmental themes, illustrated by award-winning artist Bob Staake, two young families in two very different parts of the world each plant a tree.
As the trees flourish, so do the families . . . while trees all over the world help clean the air, enrich the soil, and give fruit and shade.
With a nod to Kenya's successful Green Belt Movement, Diane Muldrow's elegant text celebrates the life and hope that every tree-from Paris to Brooklyn to Tokyo-brings to our planet. Now in paperback, this book can be enjoyed by children in classrooms everywhere.
