Wangari Muta Maathai has changed Kenya tree by tree—and with each page turned, children will realize their own ability to positively impact the future.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1416935053\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1416935053.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Napoli, Donna Jo|Nelson, Kadir\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
