Snowboy is busy saving the Polar Bear King when Greenbackboy approaches him with an idea for a game called KA-CHING — a game that will make them rich. It’s easy: all they need to do is cut down all of the trees in the forest and catch all of the fish in the ocean and trade it in for piles and piles of shiny KA-CHING. But if all the trees are gone, they won’t be able to breathe and what is a sea without fish? Snowboy thinks for a moment and leaves the last of every tree and fish. Snowboy goes by his instinct and tries to nurture the last of everything and save the whole world. Will he succeed in his mission? The last tree can become their saviour?
This book is filled with bright illustrations and clearly explains what happens to the earth when we are greedy. A story to be read for every child and explain how to conserve our planet and how to nurture it wisely.
