Description

When a small girl discovers there was once a lush forest on the great gray mountain, she is determined to plant as many new trees as she can. And even though the blazing sun shrivels the new shoots and fierce storms wash away all her hard work . . . she never, EVER gives up.

A powerful and hopeful story about how one girl's dream inspires a whole village and how, together, they can create something incredible.

Critical Reviews

The story unfolds to show the power of intergenerational partnership as a desolate gray landscape transforms into a colorful tapestry teeming with life... At a time when many of us may feel small in the face of environmental harm, this story serves as a reminder that small actions can have a big impact.--Sarah Pousty, School Library Journal
