Lindsay Ford's Lonely Doug

Although Lonely Doug stands alone, that doesn’t mean he is actually lonely. He has a big job and stands to teach us so much about life, history and the environment of B.C’s old growth trees. This is a good book to help talk to kids about trees, forest ecosystems and the environment. It is also a good book to speak about feelings of being alone or feeling lonely.

What if Doug was cut down? What if Doug were the last Christmas tree? What would that look like? What would that mean for the world?

Part of the Awkward+Awesome children’s book series celebrating unlikely heroes.

Suitable for Kindergarten to Grade 4.
