Boma and his father are nature giants in Vomper Creek, located in the midst of mountains and meadows. Together, Boma and his father help the nature beings manage the natural world they all live in. When Boma’s father needs to sleep for a hundred years, it’s up to Boma to make sure everything in nature runs smoothly, and he is worried he won’t be able to remember everything his father taught him.

A very uniquely different children's book. THE FACE IN THE MOUNTAIN by Tolulope Okudolo, with its beautiful illustrations show how fascinating nature can be to children. Through their eyes things look totally different than they do to adults. Especially Vomper Creek with its beautiful hills, trees, and flowers. And yes, even nature itself. I loved the way the author brought together these nature beings to show the many ways that they can take care of nature. Plus; there is this wonderful guide in the back of the book that explains what these beings do to help nature and how they go about it. There are also some activities that children, along with their parents can enjoy so they can have that quality time together.
This amazing book can be read to preschool children and too, K-Third grade students can also enjoy its many colorful works of art that show nature at work. The plot will lead the children through, and not just tell, but show them that nature beings have feelings too when it comes to helping and not hurting the Earth. This book would be great for school libraries. I loved it!
