Michele Van Wyk: I read this book to my children over twenty five ago. Just bought it for my first grandchild and it’s even more relevant today! The illustrations are beautiful and each picture tells its own story. Will definitely purchase again.

Annmarie: My daughter who is 9 absolutely loved this book. A real eye opener into the reality of capitalism and materialism. Shame us adults don't change. The world would be such a peaceful place without arrogance and greed of narracistic people. Money doesn't make any of us a better or good person. I'm glad my children believe in themselves enough to know most of the world is filed with selfish people and they choose to be good kind peoe. They know at such a young age who they are. They did cry when they told me aboyt how they felt after reading the book.

Gwen Rowe: I have used this as a read aloud in class, and also reading with a small class. It is such a wonderful book that I just bought a copy for my niece. I was reminded of it when her father said she wants to be “canopy scientist” when she grows up.

miss emma l french: Year 4 found reading this book a pleasure. The story is full of descriptive language which persuaded us to keep reading. The book gives the animals an opportunity to share how they feel about chopping down the Kapok Tree. The book made us think about deforestation and encourages us to think about the products we use and if we are wasting them. The Great Kapok Tree is full of exotic illustrations which makes the rainforest come to life. We would recommend this book to 8 and 9 year old because some of the language used is difficult to understand.
