Abstract

New Roots is a 40-page, self-ended picture book dummy, exploring themes of environmental grief, specifically around the loss of old-growth forests. While New Roots is targeted to children ages six to eight, the book can be enjoyed by any person grappling with grief for the environment. The story follows a Nympe as she explores a modern world, comes to terms with the loss of her forest, and learns new hope in new beginnings.
