The Wild by Yuval Zommer
Once upon a time, somewhere not far away, was the Wild. The Wild was huge and giving, and everything from insects, to birds, to humans made their home in it. At first, people lived lightly and took what they needed, but when they started to take more, the Wild suffered. For the Wild to be healthy, someone must be brave enough to raise their voice . . . Yuval Zommer's lyrical modern fable has a hopeful and powerful message about how our environment needs us just as much as we need it.
