Rating: 1-5 (5 is an excellent or a Starred review) 5

What did you like about the book? This is a very personal and incredibly comprehensive guide to what trees should mean to everyone on earth. Lavishly illustrated the author shows us trees of the world and the roles they play in our lives. The format is more than friendly, it is compulsive reading. A detailed resource list and a glossary are included.

What didn’t you like about the book? Nothing to dislike here!

To whom would you recommend this book? I would recommend this book to everyone: not only is it extremely informative and interesting, it can open one’s eyes to the majestic magic of trees.

Who should buy this book? All public libraries and elementary and middle school libraries

Where would you shelve it? 582.16

Should we (librarians) put this on the top of our “to read” piles? Yes!
