Little Green Tree enters into the world of imagination, to tell of a small evergreen tree that feels lonesome in a great forest, because it is the only one of its kind. It longs to be free and see what the world is all about. It travels far and wide and learns many things. When full grown, it returns to its forest home to share its experiences. There, it is deeply challenged by a jealous and powerful leader. The Tree is not alone, however, but has wise nature friends who guide it through its challenging journey and leads it to a surprising victory. This fairy tale invites children into the world of nature to help them become aware that trees are living beings that humans everywhere need to protect and preserve. It is also meant as an aid for second language learners, in either English or Spanish. This 36 page, bilingual English/Spanish tale includes twelve pastel / ink drawings and five pages of activities.
