The Tree

The Tree is an illustrated tale about the surprisingly epic life of a tree. One day, the author's 4-year old daughter asked a simple, yet profound question: "What happens to a tree after it falls down?" This conversation inspired the creation of this book as a way to show her the beauty of the cycle of life in the natural world. Follow the humble origins of a cottonwood seed from its mother tree to its enduring life. Vibrant imagery and simple prose engage children ages 3-6 in this touching story.
