Description

“Are trees alive? How do they breathe? They do not have noses.”

And so begins a conversation between the writer and her daughter that ends up in a remarkable discovery: Trees are like children in such a lot of ways! They may look very different from people, but trees have roots that hold them to the ground like feet and leaves that blow in the wind like hair. Their bark even comes in different colors, similar to our skin.

From this poetic comparison of plants and humans, readers will find out how trees live and grow, and how they get their food. They are going to learn about the baobab trees of Africa, the banyan trees of India, and the bristlecone pines of California. They are going to see, through Stacey Schuett’s exquisite art, that trees come in all sizes and styles-similar to people-and provide a home to various animals. But most of all, They are going to take a look at trees with greater respect and a bit of awe, after realizing that trees are alive too.
