Summary:
Wangari
grew up in the shadow of Mount
Kenya
listening to the stories about the people and land around her. Though the
trees
towered over her, she had loved them for as long as she could remember. So strong, so beautiful, how the
trees
made her smile.
Wangari
planted
trees
one by one to refresh her spirit. When the women came to her for help with their families, she told them to do the same. Soon the countryside was filled with
trees
.
Kenya
was strong once more.
Wangari
had changed her country, tree by tree.
