Toby Lolness may be just one and a half millimeters tall, but he's the most wanted person in his world, the world of the great oak Tree. Toby's father has made a groundbreaking discovery: the Tree itself is alive, lowing with vital energy, and there may even be a world beyond it. Greedy developers itch to exploit this forbidden knowledge, risking permanent damage to their natural world. But Toby's father has refused to reveal his findings, causing the family to be exiled to the lower branches. Only Toby has managed to escape, but for how long? And how can he bear to leave his parents to their terrible fate?

A 1001 CBYMRBYGU. Toby is only one and a half millimeters tall and he lives in a tree. The tree is the world. Or so he thinks.
Bad guys are destroying the tree. These bad guys are the same kind of bad guys we have in our world and they are obsessed with the same sort of things (making money, development) with the same byproducts (ruining the environment) that we have in our world.
Lots of action. Lots of adventure. Some Roald Dahl moments for me while reading this tale.
