Growing up in a small village in Kenya, Wangari is accustomed to being surrounded by lush green lands. Wangari leaves Kenya, and upon her return, is alarmed at the rapid deforestation taking over her small village. She begins planting trees and encourages other women in her village to do the same. This vivid account of the life of the 2004 Nobel Peace Prize winner, Wangari Maathai who dedicated her life to preserving the African rainforest, is truly inspirational, and will show children that one can lead by example and that resiliency, heart, and perseverance always prevail.
