- Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2022Our class loved the story of the loneliest Palm tree. The pages were colorful and inviting for the young readers. Kai was a happy Palm tree but wanted someone to share her beautiful view with. She soon makes friends with a bird whose song fills the air. Kai is no longer lonely as all of her bird family joins her. Our students with severe cognitive delays wrote book reports on Kai and learned valuable life lessons about sharing and kindness.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book was a real tree-t!
The wonderful illustrations and beautiful story intrigued my grandchildren. They loved learning about how palm trees are born and loved all the amazing birds! They connected with Kai and felt along with her including the happiness at the end of the story! It sparked conversation and inspired stories of their own!
