Written & illustrated by Jessica Meserve
A tree-loving creature learns the value of sharing after a close encounter with danger.
Little Red finds a perfect tree and wants it all to himself. But with birds, bugs, and an elephant sharing the space, it's too noisy. Seeking solitude, he encounters a leopard, discovering the importance of community and friendship. Will Little Red embrace the noisy tree or find a new home?
For readers ages 3-7, this is a stunningly illustrated celebration of tolerance, togetherness, and the power of community. Little Red is delighted when he discovers a beautiful tree–and he wants to keep it all to himself! But he soon realizes he is not alone in the tree. Birds stop by to rest on its branches during a long flight. An elephant uses the tree’s rough bark to scratch its back. And with all of the other animals, bugs, and birds that call the tree home, it’s just too noisy for Little Red! He decides to set out to find ANOTHER tree, just for himself–but when he has a scary run-in with a leopard, Little Red learns the value of sharing, community, tolerance, and friends who have your back.
