A child’s bond with a tree becomes a call to protect it

A child befriends a tree, and that connection continues into adulthood, when the child works to protect it. The picture book links personal attachment to the natural world with a broader concern for the earth. Its back matter adds information about trees, oxygen, and the carbon cycle, giving the story a science-and-nature dimension alongside its focus on care and environmental responsibility.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 exploring nature and environmental care
  • Families or educators seeking a picture book with supporting information about trees and the carbon cycle

Book overview

A gorgeously illustrated picture book that celebrates our connections to nature and to each other while empowering young readers to help protect the earth, from a beloved British poet, musician, actor, and activist.

In this powerful love letter to nature, a child who befriends a tree grows up and fights to protect it. With its spare, lyrical text; sumptuous illustrations; and back matter about trees, oxygen, and the carbon cycle, this inviting, inspiring call to save our planet is perfect for Earth Day, and every day.
