{"product_id":"treenotes-a-year-in-the-company-of-trees","title":"TreeNotes: A Year in the Company of Trees","description":"From an esteemed National Geographic explorer and forest ecologist, a charming collection of thought-provoking essays exploring the meaning of trees in our lives.\n\nTelephone poles, baseball bats, railroad ties. Peaches, nutmeg, and vanilla. The more you look, the more you realize: Our world depends on products made from trees. In this sweet book, forest ecologist Nalini Nadkarni takes you on a worldwide journey to learn more about trees—their variety, their usefulness, their beauty, and their importance, not only to human culture, but to the entire natural world.\n\nInspired by Nadkarni’s popular podcast broadcast by Utah’s public radio station KUER, TreeNotes comprises more than 45 brief essays, organized by season. Chapters roam from big questions to the particular; for instance:\n\nHow Many Kinds of Trees Are There? Trees and Lightning Tree Pollen The Baobab Tree Mistletoe Conductors’ Batons\nLearn what wood Ringo's favorite drumsticks are made of, and how the seeds of the cacao tree become delectable chocolate. Lovely illustrations make every turn of the page a happy moment in this arboreal adventure.\n\nFor lovers of nature, forest bathers, the conservation-minded, and anyone who wants to spend a few minutes meditating on the meaning of trees in our world, this is the book.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1426224419\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1426224419.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Nadkarni, Nalini\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
