I’m Like a Tree and a Tree’s Like Me by Sylvaine Jaoui, illustrated by Anne Crahay (9781592704248)

Growing side-by-side throughout this book, a child and a tree transform. From a tiny seed to a fattening cell to setting down roots. They burst into the light one day. They both need water and warmth. And they are both gifts to the world and rely on the world around them.

With clever die cuts, this picture book ties humans closely together with nature, embracing our connectedness to the world around us and showing us that we are part of a larger whole.

A delight of an import from a French author and Belgian artist. Appropriate for ages 3-5.
