Poetic words present all the great benefits of having a tree, from drawing in the sand with it's branches, to jumping in a pile of raked leaves in fall. Delicate ink and watercolor illustrations pair with carefully chosen prose in a perfect harmony to suggest that everyone should go out and plant a tree.
