Description

A stunning celebration of tolerance, togetherness and the power of community from rising star Jessica Meserve.

Little Red is delighted when he discovers a beautiful tree, all to himself! But he soon realises he is not on his own - animals of all sizes visit the tree to enjoy its shade, nibble on its leaves and rest on its branches. Little Red doesn't want to share; he'd rather set off to find a place of his own. But after a mildly perilous altercation with a leopard, Little Red learns the value of friends who have your back.

A gentle encouragement of the importance of sharing and acceptance with exquisite, detailed illustration that are perfect for poring over. Like Hey, Wall by Susan Verde and John Parra, Maybe Something Beautiful by F. Isabel Campoy, Theresa Howell and Rafael Lpez, and Leaves by Stephen Hogtun, Our Tree is a picture book to treasure.
