fun little read with vibrant pictures. would be perfect for parents to read to their young children and talk about climate change in an age appropriate manner. I wish the story had gone on a little, however that may just be a factor of me having an adult attention span! I think kids would love this as its very colourful and has an important message.

Living Green and the Spell was a great book to introduce the concept of preservation of nature. I really enjoyed the "Hater the Emperor" character, as well as the trees and flowers being animate objects. The moral of humans eventually ruining the planet didn't come across as too heavy. Great book for elementary school students.

Wow, what a fun read. As a vegan, I’m all for loving the world. This was another way to show small humans that plants are important too. They make the world a better place in so many ways. This is a quick read with vibrant pictures. Really enjoyed! The only thing I thought was weird were the quotations about the “hater the emperor”, I thought they were extraneous and didn’t add to the story, they kind of took me out of the moment. Otherwise, a must read for small humans about the importance of plants.

Thank you NetGalley and Books Go Social for the digital review copy.

Actually this little book charming me. I would love reading to my kid about how the plants nomore moving and have heartbeat. But I think there is a loophole in the plot about the connection between the Hater and the humans.

Thanks Netgalley for providing me with this book.

This was a fun little book about a bad guy who came down to earth in his spaceship
long ago before humans and animals. At the time, plants and trees could walk and talk. But when they refused domination by the alien visitor, he made it so they would be alive but rooted to the ground and no longer able to walk or talk.

This was a great Earth Day read! My 4-year-old twins were a little nervous about the alien invader, but they enjoyed the story and were totally enthralled. Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for this digital ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I loved Living Green and the Spell. I always try to teach my daughter the importance of plants and nature - and that they are alive and we should treat them with respect. This story was fun and the illustrations had me smiling the entire time. I actually wanted more and felt that it ended rather quickly. This is a great little story to introduce small children the importance of preservation of our planet and all things on it.

Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the opportunity to read this little book in exchange for my honest opinion.

Living Green and the Spell is a fun little book about plants and conservation. Children are told that plants have one been talkative and walkable, but once the Hater Emperor arrived, it all changed. A silly yet thought provoking story, I loved the concept of this!
