"Hello, Beech Tree" written by Rasha Hamid and illustrated by Sofia Moore, is a children's picture book about the true story of a kindergarten class in Brooklyn, New York. The class was called the Beech Class and named after a huge Beech tree in the path near the school. The kids loved the tree. One day, their Beech tree was missing. It had to be cut down because it was sick. They decide to raise money to get a new one planted. They succeed, and the new tree is planted the following fall.

The pictures by Sofia Moore are colorful and easy to understand.

This book supports the idea of environmental justice. The idea is that everyone deserves to live in a clean and safe space with green areas. This is a great book I highly recommend!
