Ode to a Mother Tree (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781554556922)

After springing from the ashes of a catastrophic forest fire, can one tiny seedling cling to life long enough to flourish into its full potential? As intimate as it is universal, this lyrical yet science-based coming-of-age story about the making of a Mother Tree follows one tree's craving for connection over the span of a millennium. Chronicled through stark, stirring text fused with vivid, spellbinding artwork, the singular life of one Western red cedar tree serves as a living bridge between worlds, across cultures, and beyond time as we know it.

Lavish, lichen-draped,
Sporting sleeves of moss, these trees
Pulse with plush, lush life.
