This wonderful book is perfect for teaching kids about nature and nurturing our environment. This book tells the story of a boy named Meekwun and his friendship with a tree. The book conveys the message that what we give to nature, we receive in return. It explains how nature fulfils our needs and emphasises the importance of not exploiting it or pushing it beyond its limits. Additionally, the end of the book features engaging activities to keep children entertained, including a few colouring pages. I just felt that some of the illustrations can be improved. Regardless, it was a lovely book.
I am delighted to have the privilege of reading the review copy of this lovely book through Booksprout and leave my honest review.
