Book Overview

Be a Tree! is a lyrical, gorgeously illustrated look at the majesty of trees--and what humans can learn from them.

We are all like trees: our spines, trunks; our skin, bark; our hearts giving us strength and support, like heartwood. We are fueled by air and sun.

And, like humans, trees are social. They "talk" to spread information; they share food and resources. They shelter and take care of one another. They are stronger together.

In this gorgeous and poetic celebration of one of nature's greatest creations, acclaimed author Maria Gianferrari and illustrator Felicita Sala compare us to the beauty and majesty of trees--and gently share the ways in which trees can inspire us to be better people.

"By foregrounding living beings that exemplify grace, strength, and endurance, Gianferrari gives readers a new way to think about their individual and collective existences." --Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

Stand tall.
Stretch your branches to the sun.
