Another Voice Sings in the Forest

Greedy people were killing trees."What will we do?" cried Ash. "If this keeps up the entire earth will be without trees," Elder tree whimpered. How did Ash and the other trees discover what to do? Writer Abuela Luna's modern day children's myth, illustrated by Pecos, New Mexico school students, tells how the trees find out the solution to their problem.The mythical story describes how trees grow, the importance of trees and the sanctity of the trees in language that children read and understand.The prologue explains to the teacher/parent how this myth is based on scientific fact, the ecology, environmentalism and balance of the natural world.Dr. Seuss' Lorax spoke for the trees. So does Abuela Luna.
