This inspiring book has a simple storyline, which encourages appreciation of the humble tree and its special place in our lives.

The pictures are filled with wondrous detail, playfulness and the familiar scenes of family and community.

Trees are cleverly likened to all the stages of growing up. There are grandfather trees, grown-ups, in-betweens and baby trees!

The story is reflective of the cycles of life, with tons of fun things for kids to discover.

Delicious textures in the plasticine and clever photography lend a feeling of depth and reality to the images.

Barbara Reid’s skill in visually delighting children is apparent in these richly coloured, diverse scenes.

Used at home or in schools, this book could inspire some super fun art classes, especially for older children.

A very special book full of vibrancy, creativity and the magic of trees.
