Synopsis: There is a season for everything.

If you enjoyed Antoine de Saint-Exupery's The Little Prince, then you'll love this. 

Described as, "Moving", "Uplifting", and "Enlightening", The Girl with the Green-Tinted Hair is a spiritual fable about personal growth and about seeing how truly magical life is. 

When a boy finds a girl singing and dancing under his favourite tree he didn't realise he had been chosen to be the one-off witness to something out of this world. The boy is shown how to live in joy and is reminded of how to pursue his life's calling. His fear of ageing is overcome and dying is no longer what it seems - all because of the girl with the green-tinted hair. 

In this truly comforting tale of wonder and intrigue, which has been called a "hidden gem", we discover for ourselves how to live in harmony with that which is forever flowing; that which we call life.

My Review: This story is about a young boy who meets a girl and the changes that they go through within a year.

The main character is only referred to as 'the boy', the boy doesn't have any friends so he talks to a tree asking for advice as he knows it will always be there but he doesn't get any answers.

The boy was lonely and desperately wants a friend, what he doesn't know is the tree has been listening to his plea.

The tree sends him a girl who changes with the seasons first a child, then a teenager, adult and finally an elder and each one teaches the boy something new and to live life to the fullest.
