Whether you're planting trees or helping the bees, every little action to care for nature counts!
Nature Ninja and two friends - a wise owl mentor, Boobook and a trusty sidekick, Stick - are on a mission to save the planet.
Upon realising that they're not allowed out of their backyard on their own, they question if they really can make a difference.
The story is an energetic, eco-adventure that sees the characters taking a series of actions to care for nature in their own backyard.
With Boobook's guiding words and Stick's help, Nature Ninja learns that with a little patience and persistence, their actions do make a difference.
Children will follow along to see if they achieve their mission and feel empowered discovering that every little action to care for nature where they live counts.
