Author: Natalie Denny
Illustrator: Chanté Timothy
Brimming with ideas and passion, Keisha Jones is back - just as fierce, funny, and fearless as ever. This time, her fire is fuelled by something green. When Keisha discovers that trees in a nearby park are set to be chopped down to make way for a car park, she knows it’s her moment to take a stand.
Rallying the Bee Squad - her loyal friends KD and Paisley - she launches her most vital mission yet: protecting the VITs, those Very Important Trees. What begins as a determined campaign soon blossoms into an adventure full of mischief, heartfelt camaraderie, and the wholehearted chaos that follows when small voices come together to make a big difference.
This lively sequel is packed with heart and humour. Keisha throws herself into her cause with unstoppable energy, and the story brims with witty dialogue, engaging narration, and Chanté Timothy’s illustrations that bring the characters to life. At the same time, it carries a powerful message of environmental activism.
Keisha’s mission to save the trees is both timely and inspiring, showing young readers that they can stand up for nature and protect the planet - one tree at a time. Keisha’s determination is strengthened by the encouragement of her family and friends, reminding readers that big change often begins with the people closest to us.
