Discover the life of trees through science, folklore, history and
art – every day of the year. Immerse yourself in the world of
trees with A Tree A Day – packed with tree facts and richly
illustrated throughout with photographs and art. Nature writer
Amy-Jane Beer takes us on a tour around the world’s woodlands to
tell the stories of a variety of trees, from mysterious ginkos to
historical oaks. Anyone who has sat in the dappled shade of a
mighty oak or wandered in the blaze of a deciduous woodland in
autumn cannot fail to appreciate the wonder of our trees and
forests. Each of the 366 entries in this beautiful book – one for
every day of the year – reveals some of the fascinating science,
natural history or folklore of our great and gracious green
neighbours, the history made beneath their branches, or the
creativity they inspire. From the awesome Californian redwoods,
titans of the tree world, to tiny but exquisite bonsai, and from
the fantastically irritable sentinel willow of Harry Potter fame to
the Japanese springtime tradition of hanami (blossom viewing) –
this captivating collection showcases remarkable individuals and
explores some of the ways trees support life on Earth as we know
it. Celebrating one of the longest-living lifeforms on earth, A
Tree A Day is forest bathing in book form and a wonder for nature
lovers and tree enthusiasts alike.
