Rima misses the rainforest 2

Rima is an eleven-year-old girl from Indonesia. She lives on a palm tree farm with her family.

Two years ago, the farm was a part of the rainforest.

The forest provided a nice home for many animals like birds, monkeys, and elephants. It was also a playground for Rima and her little brother.

They were happy in the forest.

One day, a man from a big company visited Rima's village and everything changed after that.

People burned trees and then planted palm trees. Little by little, the rainforest disappeared.

Rima and her brother were sad.

Now, there are only palm trees around Rima's house.

People get palm oil from the trees and sell it.

They make money this way. 

The adults are happy, but Rima isn't.

The rainforest was full of life before, but now there are no animals.

She misses the good old days.
