TREES

Discover the wonder of trees - one of the most essential life forms on the planet - in this beautifully illustrated, entertaining, and educational guide from acclaimed author and artist Kelsey Oseid.

Trees are fascinating: They live longer than anything else on Earth and can't die of old age. More than half their species exist in a single country - can you guess which one? (Brazil.) They provide oxygens for us to breathe, and each absorbs nearly fifty pounds of carbon dioxide a year. They care for each other by trading water and nutrients through soil fungi and warning one another of drought and disease.

In TREES, celebrated artist and author Kelsey Oseid shows us just how vital trees are to the health and beauty of our planet. The world's most stunning, strange, and noteworthy trees (from dragon's blood to monkey-puzzle) come to life in her playfully detailed style. Full of striking naturalistic art and fun scientific facts, TREES will delight and inspire nature lovers of all ages.
