The Last Tree

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Together.

The rustling got louder. Olive looked under the bench - nothing. The sound was actually coming from the leaves in the painting in front of her...

Imagine a world without trees. A world that is in many ways like our world, but where magnificent canopies, tree climbing and leaves rustling in the breeze are something only the elderly Tree Generation remembers.

Until a young girl comes along, a girl who is brave and spirited and willing to follow where her imagination takes her. Climbing accidentally into a parallel world, where nature still exists in its purest form, Olive experiences the wonders that her own world has lost.

From the bestselling author of Together, The Last Tree is a powerful evocation of the fragility of our natural world and a magnificent celebration of its beauty. Ultimately this is a wonderful story of hope and new beginnings.
