Sequoia by Tony Johnston
5.0
Wow. The stunningly gorgeous paintings that illustrate this book capture the profoundness and stature of the sequoia tree for the reader. The text of this story is beautifully written as the sequoia tree takes on a persona and his life is described in a third person voice through the seasons.
I would pair this with [b:Redwoods|6296235|Redwoods|Jason Chin|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1317064736s/6296235.jpg|6480654] and use the author's note at the end that explains the difference between the two ancient types of trees. Would also pair well with [b:Poetrees|6948835|Poetrees|Douglas Florian|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1311167511s/6948835.jpg|7183084] & [b:Celebritrees: Historic and Famous Trees of the World|2836571|Celebritrees Historic and Famous Trees of the World|Margi Preus|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1317792828s/2836571.jpg|2862677].
