Hello,
I'm an animator and once a year I try to make a short animation for a charity. This year I have chosen a forest protection charity and decided it would be fun to make the animation from a rhyming poem, read by a child.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated as I am not a writer. (I have very thick skin)

Green and luscious are our forests........(story book opens)
Home to millions of special friends........(Madagascan Animals)
From the youngest to the oldest...........(Animals in trees)
All watch as the tree song ends............(Tress are burning)
For every year of burning leaf...............(Leaf Burning)
Makes more carbon than all of these.....(cars drive the forest)
Don’t be saddened or fall in grief..........(Animal look up)
Help the planet, save our trees.............(Signs “Protected land”)
For every penny you donate.................(Trees Grow back)
Goes to our forests that you help create. (Trees green & large)

Main points.
The forest is burning.
Forest have a lot of endangered unique animals.
Burning forests make more carbon dioxide than all transport combined.
All donation go to forest protection. 100%

If anyone is free or interested in helping me with this, I would be eternally greatfull.
