Book Description | The forest is a beautiful place, full of many different animals, tall trees, and a crystal-clear river. But when man appears, he cuts down trees and scatters litter on the ground. Soon, the animals find their home threatened and decide they must come up with a plan to change man's ways. How can the animals show man the true beauty and importance of their home? To understand the forest, man must become a part of it. With mother nature's help, man is transformed in ways he never thought possible. But will a change in man's ways take root? |
