"An exemplary first picture book for both author and illustrator, this collaboration will appeal to a wide audience of children." -- School Library Journal "A testament to heroism, based on events in northern India in the 1970s. When cutting crews came to slash the forest, women and girls faced down the developers and halted the destruction. More books of this caliber might help save the planet." -- Smithsonian Choices, Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC) Notable Children's Book, Smithsonian, "An exemplary first picture book for both author and illustrator, this collaboration will appeal to a wide audience of children." -- School Library Journal "A testament to heroism, based on events in northern India in the 1970s.

Synopsis
A village girl in India inspires the women around her to save their beloved forest. One day Aani is resting against her favorite tree when she hears the unfamiliar roar of trucks. She alerts the village women, the eldest of whom says the sounds are made by men from the city who have come to cut down the trees. The women explain to the cutters that their trees provide the villagers with food and fuel; are home to animals; and prevent erosion. But the men are heedless. As the cutters move closer, Aani acts with quiet, instinctive heroism to save not only her special tree, but also the village's beloved forest. Based on a true event in northern India, Aani and the Tree Huggers presents an enduring message of environmental action. In their picture book debuts, author Jeannine Atkins and artist Venantius J. Pinto introduce a memorable heroine whose love of the earth is sure to be an inspiration to children everywhere., One day Aani is resting against her favorite tree when she hears the unfamiliar roar of trucks.
