In A Family of Trees, young children aged 2-4 are introduced to the enchanting world of forests through a poetic and engaging narrative.

As the story unfolds, children will be captivated by the idea that trees not only exist in isolation but form interconnected communities that thrive together.
The innovative accordion-style format of A Family of Trees allows the book to extend into a stunning forest-scape that measures over eight feet long.
