“Little Sprout” Eve lives at the very edge of a forest overlooking her favourite baobab tree. Trees are her daily diet; fascinated by them, she wishes she could be one and, even, talk to them! And then, on her birthday, Grandma gives her a little bark parcel. Inside is a tiny baobab seedling which the family plant next to each of their own trees. Eve is tasked with nurturing it so as it grows strong and healthy and, with that, Eco Girl is born!
