A poignant picture book about a mother and baby chimpanzee searching for a new home, and the importance of finding shelter, safety, and belonging. This gentle, rhythmic story follows a mother and baby chimpanzees on their daily journey through the forest as they search for the one place that makes them feel safe: the big tree. They walk, run, swing, stumble, wait, and hope... until at last they find it rising through the mist. The big tree is more than just a tree: it's a shelter, a hug, and a new home. Told with simple, lyrical language and a beautifully emotive artwork, The Big Tree introduces young readers to important topics such environmental change, how forests support wildlife and why trees matter. It is the perfect title for sparking discussion and care for the natural world.
