This is a beautifully written book. As I was reading about each tree, I felt like I was meeting and making a new friend. The author writes about the animals and organisms that depend on the tree and how life would change drastically if the tree was gone. I highly recommend this book to anyone that enjoys outdoor adventures or reading about trees.
