The Woman who Loved Trees: An Ecological Parable (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798998626807)

A short parable about a man who sought travel and adventure, but who had a transforming experience in a forest. On his journey he met a woman who was earth-grounded, and he was inspired to become like her. The reader is carried along to see this uplifting transformation through his eyes.

This is a book for all ages. The tone is purposefully innocent and simple enough to reach everyone. Readers love short books, such as this, that they can finish in one sitting. This story is more about a feeling than it is about details. The reader goes from an emotional low place to a high place and is left feeling inspired to do more for the earth.

In addition to the story itself, the Japanese language element adds another dimension of readership. Each page in English has a facing page with the same text in Kanji Japanese. Thus, it can be enjoyed by either language speaker or could also be used as a learning tool for those going from one language to another.
