Review:
If you are curious about the name of this book, it is the name of a pioneer of Ecological Building Design. Friedensriech Hundertwasser was a committed environmentalist that created buildings and houses with trees on rooftops and facades.
This vibrant and
multi-colored illustrated tale of a city brought back to life with a bit of
mystery is a fun way to introduce children to an amazing architect and environmentalist.
This easy to read story with little elements of surprise can be used as a
teaching tool for colors, architecture, tree tenants and forests in the city.
Young readers can view the back pages to learn more aout Hundertwasser. Parents
and teachers will love sharing and discussing this read with kids of all ages.
