A lyrical, rhyming picture book about the importance of home, the healing magic of memory and the power of activism to change our world

Amisha lived with her Mum, in a tree. They swung on branches, wild and free. And all was good - until, one day . . . Amisha was taken, far away.

When orangutan Amisha arrives in the city, she quickly finds a new routine climbing and swinging on ropes and wires. But when she meets a new friend - a bird, called Blue - he helps her to remember her rainforest home and her love for trees. Surely one little orangutan can't change the world - can they?

A beautiful and poignant story which explores the meaning of home with a powerful message around activism and caring for our world. From Helen Docherty and Erica Salcedo, the creative partnership behind The Bee Who Loved Words.
