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.
They said I couldn't change the world; it wasn't worth the fight. But in my head, a small voice said...maybe you might.
Read the full description
A young girl makes a choice to plant a seed by a long dead riverbed. Little does she know that from this single, small act, a vibrant ecosystem will grow.
This inspiring poem - bursting with hope for a greener world - is a love letter to our ailing planet. It shows us that even when the future appears most bleak, each one of us can make a difference.
'Narrated in beautiful, uplifting, lyrical verse by the child, this lovely British import is about the glorious fulfillment of hope and supports the idea that one small person might change the world. The mixed-media illustrations are stunning and perfectly suit the text.' - Kirkus Starred Review
