Product Description

In a tender celebration of family tradition, a little girl becomes an environmental steward to express her love for all things leafy and green.

Eve loves living next to a forest because it means being close to her favorite baobab trees. Doing her best to imitate them, Eve practices patience. She feeds and shelters birds, just as her beloved trees do, stretching toward the sky as if her arms were branches. Eve longs to communicate with the leafy giants she admires, and while she can't become a tree, she can contribute to the beauty of the forest—just like her dad and grandma before her—by nurturing her very own baobab seedling. Thoughtful text, intimate illustrations, and abundant back matter gently introduce the concept of land stewardship and the joys of giving back. Ken Wilson-Max's picture book companion to Astro Girl celebrates reciprocity while honoring our connection to our own branching family trees.

Review

To accompany his sweet storyline, Wilson-Max crafts lush illustrations depicting the verdant home of Eve's family in Africa as she spends her birthday receiving a very special surprise and undergoing a poignant family tradition: planting a baobab sprout of her very own. The book closes with tree facts to pique the interest of young naturalists, plus a note about the Great Green Wall in Africa. Young readers with a love for fauna will indulge in Eve's birthday celebration as she grows closer to Mother Earth and follows in the footsteps of her family.
