This was the sweetest book I’ve ever read. It really spoke to my inner hippie 🌿 The way it was written was not only touching but also funny with little corny jokes and adorable exercises. There were also informative breaks that taught me a lot about various trees. Overall this was a really creative self help book that gave our lovely tree friends the attention and glory they deserve. An earth gypsy’s Bible 🐛

Trees played a huge chunk in my childhood. It feels nostalgic to find a book that reminded me of nature's way of entertaining children back in the day.

It appears that trees have always been accorded with sanctity since the ancient times. The trees have become the silent witnesses of the world's capacity to build and destroy.

While we do not always have the luxury of time to feel the spirit of the trees, it is somehow a lovely discussion to include the trees in our conversations.

Be More Tree is an unserious book filled with aesthetic illustrations, folkloric language, and activity guides to help its readers connect more with nature and their inner selves. It encourages the emulation of the ancient beings around us that will almost certainly outlive our young. Its hippie tone permeates its pages, dancing around the many species of trees and the meanings humans have ascribed to them across time.
