I Speak for the Trees

Children will be inspired by creatively illustrated books about trees (non-fiction), as well as empowering stories of fictional and real-life individuals who are changing the world, one tree at a me. In this collection, the many resolute voices and actions, young and old alike, as Dr Suess’ Lorax says, speak for the trees.
