The Wisdom of Trees
Lita Judge
Poems and scientific information explore how trees function in connected communities. The book describes trees communicating through their roots, warning one another about predators, and sharing nourishment with trees that are young or unwell. It also considers how blooms and nuts feed animals and help new trees grow. Each spread pairs a poem with related nonfiction and a watercolor scene, with additional explanatory material at the end.
