About the Book
Greta is a little girl living in a beautiful forest threatened by giants. When the giants first came to the forest, they chopped down trees to make houses. Then they chopped down more trees and made bigger homes. The houses grew into towns and the towns grew into cities, until now there is hardly any forest left. Greta knows she has to help the forest animals, but how?
