## Description

The Great Kapok Tree: A Tale of the desertcart Rain Forest (Rise and Shine) : Cherry, Lynne: desertcart.co.uk: Books

Review: Thought provoking story - Great story telling plight of rainforests
Review: great message & illustrations - Lovely book, great message & illustrations. You can read it calmly & softly as the animals one by one whisper in the man's ear telling him why he shouldn't cut down the tree using a different voice for each creature. Nice book to lull a child to sleep & had quite a profound effect on my 8 yr old with regard to looking after our planet for future generations (they had read it at school) definitely a 'keeper' to be passed down. The Learning Tree is a book I had years ago as a child explaining how we should look after our planet, not drop litter etc (which you probably can still find) & was impacting on both my children too.

Lovely book, great message & illustrations.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful book that caries an important message
*by C***O on 17 January 2014*

There is a wonderful message in this book conveying to young children the importance of trees in the rain forests and how they and nature must be protected. The pictures are beautiful and each of the animals mentioned in the story is portrayed. I use this book during my private English lessons to young French children. I would normally translate into French each sentence but one of the little girls is so intested by the story that she tries to translate it herself and points out each of the animals as she does so. If Lynne Cherry has written other similar books, then I will certainly buy them.
