It is obviously first and foremost an environmental story, but it's about more than that. It's about one person making a difference.

Escape with your students to a hallowed land far, far away where
Puppet State Theatre Company's clever adaptation of this 1953
classic by Jean Giono combines puppetry, storytelling
and choreography to create wind that really blows, rain that
gets you wet and scenes that look and smell like the French
countryside.
The Man Who Planted Trees shows us the difference one
man (and his dog!) can make to the world.
This inspiring story of a shepherd who plants a forest acorn by
acorn, has become a giant in the world of theatre for
young audiences . As funny as it is heart warming, the much-loved
and heavily decorated production has toured across Europe, the
United States and Australia, with no signs of stopping.
