Description
A heartfelt, hopeful story about how small changes can make a big difference to our planet.

In the deepest, darkest forest, where the trees twist gnarled and wild, along a winding path we find . . . a deep asleep Green Child.

As winter shifts into spring, the Green Child rouses from slumber and breathes new life into the world. Through ever-brightening days, she ushers in the changing seasons until summer finally arrives. But as the days grow hotter and longer, the forest begins to wither away. The Green Child realizes she has a job to do: to send a message to all of mankind . . . but will anyone listen?

Told in lyrical rhyme, this timeless modern classic celebrates the cycle of the seasons, sparking curiosity about the natural world and inspiring a new generation of environmental heroes. Perfect for eco-conscious families and young nature lovers, this is a gentle reminder to respect and live in harmony with our planet.

A MODERN FABLE: A magical tale that blends timeless storytelling with a timely environmental message about living in harmony with nature and protecting our one beautiful planet.

CELEBRATES BEAUTY: And teaches the importance of nature's changing seasons.

A BELOVED ILLUSTRATOR AND AUTHOR: Britta Teckentrup's atmospheric, collage-style artwork pairs perfectly with Hollie Hughes's gentle, rhythmic text.

Perfect for:

  • Parents, grandparents, and caregivers looking for a read-aloud for story time or bedtime
  • Gift-givers looking for presents for birthdays and baby showers
  • Nature lovers of all ages
  • Fans of The Little Prince, The Giving Tree, and Have You Ever Seen a Flower?
