From the author of the New York Times-bestseller The Hidden Life of
Trees comes this spirited picture book, which shares the true story
of how trees communicate, feel, and grow. "A beautiful reminder of
the importance of preserving natural forests and landscapes for the
benefit of all the creatures who live there." -School Library
Journal starred review Piet the squirrel feels all alone in his
forest home. Luckily, Peter the Forester has the perfect plan to
cheer him up: a search for tree children. You can't be lonely in a
forest full of friends! As they wander, Peter shares amazing facts
about trees, how they communicate and care for each other, and the
struggles they endure. Soon, the little squirrel is feeling much
better-especially when he realizes he's helped the tree children
grow. This environmentally conscious picture book, written by
acclaimed author and forester Peter Wohlleben, brings the majesty
of The Hidden Life of Trees to the youngest of readers everywhere.
In their debut picture book, Emmy Award winning duo Mike
Erskine-Kellie and Susan McLennan have created a laugh-out-loud
story filled with heart. The metafiction approach (speaking
directly to 'you') and fun story together with the antic exuberance
of Cale Atkinson's bold and colourful illustrations make this a
lively read-aloud that will keep even the youngest children
engaged. Though a book about finding the perfect birthday present
is itself the perfect birthday present, it's also simply a
delightful read for any time of year. It also offers an excellent
character education lesson on perseverance.
How would you get mail if you lived in the middle of the sea? It's Jo's dad's job to deliver it, taking bottles wherever they need to go. He always comes home with exciting stories to tell-but Jo is far too afraid to go out on the ocean herself. Until Dad gets a bad sea cold, that is. With no one but Jo to deliver the bottles, she must find her courage and set sail alone. As she embarks on her mission, her fears just might be replaced with new friendships . . . and grand stories of her own.
With beautiful, atmospheric art and endearing new characters by author-illustrator Cale Atkinson, this picturebook is a treasure.
