Description
The long-awaited follow-up to Mabel Murple, this tongue-twisting picture book by Canada’s Dr. Seuss encourages young readers to care for planet Earth.
May all human beings
Dream that green dream
Tend to the earth
With Great Granny Green.
From beloved, multiple-award-winning wordsmith Sheree Fitch, Canada’s Dr. Seuss, comes a tale decades in the making—when, long ago, a spunky purple girl named Mabel Murple dreamed a dream of a green and spinning planet and her gal pal…Gertrude Green!
On that faraway green planet, Great-Granny Gertie Green spends her days amongst rows and rows and rows of limeinescent-scented roses in her joyful juicy jungle-tangled gardens, but when voices from a troubled planet Earth call out to her for help, she must answer.
Donning her super-shero-ish disguise, and hopping on her flying shovel, Great-Granny Gertie Green summons the Green Aid Brigade to help heal a planet ravaged by the climate crisis. Scattering seeds of love and hope and don’t despair, Gertie Green and her whimsical friends inspire the people of Earth, reminding them they have the power to save their home.
Both a playful read-aloud and a powerful allegory encouraging us all to come together to take care of Mother Earth, Great-Granny Gertie Green and the Great Green Aid Brigade is Sheree Fitch at her absolute best. With gorgeous watercolour illustrations from naturalist Robert Lyon, this work hands the spade to the next generation, saying: Give, Earth-givers—Go!
