PRIMARY RESOURCES: ACTIVITY 5 - 'ALANNA AND THE TREE!'

Activity number 5

How often do you feel helpless? What do you feel helpless about?

We all have times when we're faced with a situation we don't like. Sometimes we can do something about it, sometimes it's more difficult. Sometimes it's something really frightening, too big for us. But sometimes we just have to do something anyway. Think of Jack the Giant Killer - or David and Goliath.

Alanna, the heroine of this story, is faced with something that threatens her whole way of life. The greedy developers threaten to destroy the rainforest where she lives. She knows that she must do something to stop them...
