From the
Sunday Times
bestselling author of
Together,
and in the highly successful genre of
The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse
, Luke Hawker's new book is a superbly illustrated narrative that evokes the fragility and beauty of our natural world.
Together.
Imagine a world without trees. A world that is in many ways like our world, but where magnificent canopies, tree climbing and leaves rustling in the breeze are now only distant memories. Until a young girl comes along, a girl who is brave and spirited and willing to follow where her imagination takes her. Through Olive's adventures in the world of trees we are reminded of nature's extraordinary power and beauty, and her actions ultimately sow the seeds of new life in her own world. From the mind and pen of bestselling author Luke Adam Hawker,
The Last Tree
is a powerful evocation of the fragility of our natural world and a magnificent celebration of its beauty.
