This is the true account of how Dr. Gordon Sato helped East African villagers learn to plant mangrove trees to help provide them with food for themselves and their animals. The pages have a repetitive “This is the House That Jack Built” prose for younger children to read. In the side column are the details of how this project became a success. Both young and old readers alike will be inspired by this story. At the end of the book, there are photographs of Dr. Sato, the villagers and the mangrove trees.  40 pages
