Leafy Landmarks: Travels with Trees

Leafy Landmarks: Travels with Trees
by Michelle Schaub (Author) and Anne Lambelet (Illustrator)
@ Amazon | Bookshop

Booktalk: Road trips can be a lot of fun, especially when there are intriguing places to visit and new things to learn. Through a variety of poetic forms, readers are taken on an armchair cross-country journey across the continental United States to visit 14 historic tree sites, some famous and others less well-known. From the Emancipation Oak in Hampton, Virginia, to the Methuselah tree in Shulman Grove, California, readers will discover trees that have traveled to the moon, witnessed the founding of our country, and inspired hope during troubled times. Accompanying facts covering geography, history, and nature will encourage everyone, young and old, to take a closer look at our arboreal friends. An author’s note provides tips on how to be a tree champion and how to plan your own “leafy” road trip.

Snippet:
HIT THE ROAD
Come take and arbor road trip
