Description

A billowing wind like someone's shaking out a wet sheet in the sky signals the start of Charlie's adventure. As he climbs into his treehouse, he enters the tree's mind and discovers a thousand names for weather. This newfound understanding is soon followed by a shattering moment of insight - a glimpse of the future of the earth. Charlie begins a project to save his own garden, unaware that it will lead him to greater challenges. Meanwhile, the tree Ash learns to think like a human, grappling with concepts such as beauty, humour and imagination. As he struggles to understand these complex ideas, plants and animals gather to discuss their relationship with humans. They pose an important question: might the planet be better off without them? This environmental parable explores pressing global issues in a unique and engaging way, involving readers in conversations about our world's future.
