What is Last Tree in the City about?
Edward lives in a grey city filled with concrete, traffic and noise. The only place that makes him happy is a small patch of green where the city’s last tree grows. But one day, the tree disappears, leaving Edward and his duck friend heartbroken. Determined to bring colour and life back, Edward comes up with a clever plan. Soon, tiny changes begin to transform the city, showing how one child’s idea can make a remarkable difference.
