The Trees in My Forest

by Bernd Heinrich

The Trees in My Forest Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

From the DNA contained in an apple seed to the great choiring branches far beyond a young boy's reach, Heinrich explores a natural world in scientific and personal terms. A scientist whose words speak with the power and grace of a poet, Heinrich uses this gift and his knowledge of his 300 acres of Maine forest to expose the forest's rhythms. In doing so, he illustrates the vital but tenuous link among men, trees, birds, insects and all the creatures of the forest. 25 illustrations.
