Finn and Skip are on an adventure vacation, cycling through the towering
rainforests of central America, when they notice that large patches of
trees seem to have disappeared. The plot thickens when an unexpected
guest arrives at their campsite--a lonely baby tapir. They feed their
new friend, but the next morning they wake up to even more hungry
animals. It seems something is afoot in the forest, and Finn and Skip
set out to discover what's going on...
This book is the ideal introduction to the environmental concerns facing
our forests, featuring colorful illustrations and an engaging,
light-hearted storyline, drawn and written by Brendan Kearney. Grown-ups
and children will enjoy reading together and following the story of Finn
and Skip, with its ups and downs, and pointing out all the different
animals that Finn meets in the rainforest. They'll also learn about how
using ethical products can help save the animals.
With its fun, quirky illustrations, Forest is the perfect addition to
a child's bookshelf. Young readers will love this picture book with a
timely and ultimately uplifting message about protecting the world
around us.
