Book Description
for The Never-Ending Greenness by Neil Waldman
From the Publisher
A country blossoms with promise and life
The trees in the old European city of Vilna stretch their branches toward the sun-filled skies. But when war comes, a small boy and his family escape to Israel. There, in the safety of their new home, the boy begins planting seedlings in the barren hills. In hope-filled text and soaring illustrations, a boy's dream becomes a rich vision of life, a never-ending greenness of the human spirit that is celebrated today in the Israeli tree-planting holiday of Tu b'Shvat.
