This inspirational rhyming plea of an 800-year-old Douglas Fir in the Pacific Rain Forest looks back over the years of observing the wonders of nature around it, as it senses their end in the sound of an approaching bulldozer. But then a group of children arrives to surround and protect it "so the wind may always carry my song." The hope is that we can save some of the vital resources of our ecosystem.
The double-page scenes of the forest are melodramatically lighted. Danioth's mixed media illustrations compose naturalistic pictures of the native animals and birds under a brilliant full moon, against the red skies of a forest fire, in the pale green light around the children circling the tree. The emotions evoked can stimulate environmental activism. Notes are added on the author's song about the tree and on the Pacific Rain Forest. A portion of the profits from the book will go to the Jane Goodall Institute and to the Circle of Life Foundation.
