Discover the beauty and wonder of trees in this stunningly
illustrated collection of poetry and stories celebrating trees and
what they mean to the world around us . . . Inspired by the woods
around his home, the mighty forests that support our life on Earth,
and the Ted Hughes poem which gives this book its title, My Heart
Was a Tree is a celebration, and Sir Michael Morpurgo's love letter
to trees. There are stories from an ancient olive remembering
Odysseus and Penelope, and from a eucalyptus that gave shelter to a
koala; from a piece of driftwood that was made into a chair, and
from a tiny sapling carried by a refugee as a reminder of home –
these are poems and stories that will amuse, move and energise
families and readers of all ages to appreciate the beauty and
wonder of trees. Yuval Zommer's beautiful, detailed illustrations
bring the natural world to life, and make My Heart Was a Tree a
book to pore over for hours and hours, discovering something new
each time.
