El Último Árbol (Spanish Edition)
by María Quintana Silva (Author) Silvia Álvarez (Illustrator)
Ganador del premio Independent Press Award en 2019. Una hermosa historia, impresa en papel de piedra, que nos recuerda la importancia de los árboles y de su conservación y nos anima a cuidar el planeta.
Una noche, los árboles del bosque decidieron que era hora de arrancar de raíz y marcharse. Arrancaron sus raíces y se arrastraron por los campos. De camino a la escuela, Goran pronto se dio cuenta de lo que estaba pasando... Todos los árboles habían desaparecido dejando grandes agujeros allí donde solían estar. Desconcertado, Goran corrió a casa para ver si el árbol de su jardín también se había marchado. Amaba ese árbol, solía ser su amigo durante la primavera cuando se colgaba de sus ramas, y también en verano cuando sus hojas lo protegían del calor del sol. Cuando comprendió realmente las consecuencias que este desastre conllevaría para los animales, los seres humanos y el medio ambiente, no dudó ni un segundo y se puso en marcha para contrarrestar el daño que ya se había hecho.
