Cómo Leer Un Árbol: Aprende a Interpretar Las Formas de Las Raíces, Los Troncos Y Las Hojas

Trees are keen to tell us so much. They'll tell us about the land, the water, the people, the animals, the weather, and time. They will tell us about their lives, the good bits and bad. Trees tell a story, but only to those who know how to read it. In How to Read a Tree, Gooley uncovers the clues hiding in plain sight: in a tree's branches and leaves; its bark, buds, and flowers; even its stump. Leaves with a pale, central streak mean that water is nearby. Young, low-growing branches show that a tree is struggling. Reddish or purple bark signals new growth. Like snowflakes, no two trees are exactly the same. Every difference reveals the epic story this tree has lived―if we stop to look closely.
