Before We Stood Tall: From Small Seed to Mighty Tree

A lyrical depiction of the life cycle of trees, told one step at a time, based on newly researched information. The steps are described in simple but evocative text, for a rhythmic telling. Particular attention is paid throughout to what's happening underground and how that links all life in the forest. Beginning with mature giants, 'mighty in the kingdom of trees,' and ending with the promise of new life on the branches that are 'hoping to be mighty in the kingdom of trees,' it's a beautiful and loving celebration of the circle of life.
