If This Old Tree Could Talk to Me!

by Jancy Morgan (Illustrator), Tom Dunn (Illustrator)

Once in a long while, a book for children is so charming and so beautifully illustrated that it is treasured by readers of all ages. This book is sure to be one. Anyone who loves nature and recognizes the importance of times that are past will love this book about an amazing tree. The authors imagine the sights that this mighty tree would have seen in its many years of growing. The pages show children swinging from its branches and birds building their nests there. There are wagon trains and Indians that passed by the tree when it was young. Each page shows in marvelous detail the tree and those who came by.

Read our review at the Reading Tub.

This is a wonderful children's book. A story from the tree's point of view.

If you order from the authors, they will decorate the inside with your name in a beautiful script and they draw little doodles of the tree, etc.

While this book was a cute story from the tree's point of view, it was not the best. The font type and color made it hard to read even for me. Therefore, I think children would struggle to read it on their own.
