Rich illustrations breathe life into the retelling of this Jataka tale, in which the Buddha appears as a wise tree spirit to teach that every being has its place in nature. Meet two whimsical tree spirits, one wise and the other foolish. They played happily together until one night a tiger sat under the tree of the foolish spirit, growling and gnawing on a stinking bone. The foolish tree spirit said, I m getting rid of that tiger! He s polluting the forest with his noise and stench! Please dont! said the wise tree spirit. The life of the forest depends on the tiger. But the foolish tree spirit didnt listen. Can the forest be saved? The book includes activities to help children connect with nature and lessen their carbon imprint.
