Description
A touching, playful exploration of empathy and interdependency from an acclaimed author and illustrator.
I’m afraid, Said the leaf. / You’re not alone, Said the tree. But who will comfort a nervous bird, a lonely crab, a lost wolf? How can a horse find warmth, a snail some cheer, a child some rest? Through a series of amusing and soothing exchanges, this deceptively simple and profound picture book depicts different pairings to celebrate interconnectedness and underlines the importance of caring for every living organism to ensure a strong and healthy natural world. I’m Afraid, Said the Leaf invites young readers to understand that we all need each other for support and survival — and that we're all stronger together.

I’m Afraid, Said The Leaf by Danielle Daniel
This book is filled with breathtaking illustrations that tell the story of how we and the environment around us are interdependent on each other to exist and thrive in harmony.
It's an ideal book for early readers, but readers of any age will be captivated by the repetition and captivating artwork that tells the tale of this beautiful story of connection.
Thank you so much NetGalley and Tundra Books and Imprint of Penguin Random House Canada for this absolutely incredible ARC!
