Finding "A forest" on my desk

A delicious treat arrived on my desk, a debut picture book, A forest, by Australian author/illustrator Marc Martin.

Simple, clear text. Layered water colour & pen images. Poignant messages about forest regeneration & human encroachment on the natural world.

If you have read The Lorax by Dr Seuss, if your kids are studying pollution & the environment, if you want to discover a new & talented artist, then you have at least three reasons to pick up this book.

Read. Think. Share.
