Teachers are calling it 'The Antidote to Screen Time' - Winner of the CLARA J JOHNS Most Creative Book Literary Award - TREE SPIRITS is a whimsical interactive picture book that helps spark a child's imagination, developing their creative talents and emotional understanding of our world.
"A fun and fantastic experience for parents with their children." --Joi's Review - "Helps kids see and visualize the world in nonobvious ways and introduces them early to an understanding of their own inner spirit and feelings: key skills for early childhood development" --Arroyo Monthly
"What do YOU see when you look up at this tree?"
The book begins with a question, inviting children to use their imagination as they look at a close-up photograph of each tree. Turning the page reveals an illustrated overlay of the charming animal spirit "hiding" within the pattern of the bark of each tree. It offers the opportunity to meet 10 animal spirits.
Written in rhyme, TREE SPIRITS also offers an opportunity to explore how each spirit is feeling, encouraging children to think about their own feelings. Each "spirit animal character" introduces a different emotion helping children to understand their own inner spirit and feelings.
Featuring additional activities, there are 5 additional photographs of trees at the end for the children to continue to draw the spirits they see and write their own stories. The book ends by encouraging children to go out, look at the trees in their own neighborhoods, and keep asking, "What do I see?"
With the full-color photographs, each paired with charmingly illustrated overlays, and stiff paperback binding, TREE SPIRITS high-value format makes it highly giftable.
