A Forest (2015), written and illustrated by Marc Martin, follows the transformation of a landscape over time as a forest grows, changes, and faces human impact. The story begins with a small tree sprouting in an untouched natural setting. Gradually, the forest expands, becoming home to many animals and plants. As time passes, people arrive and begin cutting down trees, building roads, and developing towns. The once-lush forest becomes sparse and quiet. Eventually, the story shifts again, showing nature’s slow process of recovery as new trees begin to grow where the old ones once stood. Through this visual journey, the book traces the life of a forest from growth to destruction and renewal, capturing the natural and human forces that shape its evolution.
