DESCRIPTION
Immerse yourself in the world of trees with A Tree A Day – packed with facts and richly illustrated throughout with photographs and art. Nature writer Amy-Jane Beer will take you on a tour around the world’s woodlands to tell the stories of all tree varieties.
Each of the 366 entries in this beautiful book – one for every day of the year – reveals some of the fascinating science, natural history or folklore of our great and gracious green neighbours, the history made beneath their branches, or the creativity they inspire. From awesome Californian redwoods, titans of the tree world, to tiny but exquisite bonsai, and from the fantastically irritable sentinel willow of Harry Potter fame to the Japanese springtime tradition of hanami (blossom viewing) – this captivating collection showcases remarkable individuals and explores some of the ways trees support life on Earth as we know it.
