Around the World in 80 Trees by Jonathan Drori
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This little nonfiction book on a handful (or rather, 80,) trees from around the world was a real delight.

Let's put it this way: it's definitely a great change of pace for me.

It's light, it's charming, it's absolutely informative. The illustrations are pretty wonderful but the prose is better.

The book is a hot cup of tea on a rainy day under the huge canopy of an ancient tree. It's really all about a little learning, appreciation, and wonder.

And if you're a tree-fan like me, it's just what the tree-doctor ordered. So calming.
