Describing itself as a 'graphic novel' this must be cartoonwriting at its near best. The story of an extremely unconventional way of saving a rainforest bounces along with restless energy from page to page. The vocabulary is user-friendly so even those most actively allergic to books will find the action and humour compulsive. The colours are dazzling and the reading non-threatening.
