Description
Inspiration for this book came at work one day when I noticed the children using an excessive amount of paper. I tried discussing the preciousness of paper to the children, explaining that they come from trees. This led on to a big conversation about deforestation and climate change, however the children found this a difficult concept to grasp.
I went home that day feeling a bit defeated, and after researching for resources to help teach the topic, I decided to take matters into my own hands.
Meet Oonga, an Orangutan in the Borneo rainforest who just loves to eat, sleep and play in her favourite tree. It is her favourite tree because it was the tallest tree in the whole forest and from the top, she could see her entire home and it was beautiful. Until one day, Oonga hears some strange noises, goes to investigate and sees that her rainforest that she calls home will change forever. Will anyone save the Borneo rainforest?
