Be a Tree! by Maria Gianferrari (Abrams, 2021).
In Be a Tree!, we understand that every person is like a tree: their spines, trunks; their skin, bark; their hearts giving others strength and support, like heartwood. Humans 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 both compare people to the beauty and majesty of trees--and gently share the ways in which trees can inspire us all to be better people. -- Publisher's blurb.
NH Author Maria Gianferrari, and Italian-Australian illustrator Felicita Sala will present, discuss, and read aloud their new picture book, Be a Tree! in celebration of Arbor Day in a live, free online Zoom event on May 1st, 2021 at 11 am, hosted by The Toadstool Bookshop of Keene.
