Read stories about trees, tree climbing, and Nature:

Inspiring.    Provocative.    Entertaining.    Enlightening.    Engaging.
Tree-readers enjoy stories about trees, the environment, and the quest to understand our relationship to the natural world. Grab a book and enjoy an afternoon of reading in the trees!

Even when I cannot find time to read aloft, I enjoy the opportunity to cozy in the shade of a tree and let my mind and imagination escape to the branches.

​Here is a collection of books I have enjoyed reading in the branches and beneath my favorite trees.  I'd love to hear about one of your favorite books!    Send me your recommendation

One Square Inch of Silence: One Man's Quest to Preserve Quiet by Gordon Hempton & John Grossman - Where to buy

"One Square Inch of Silence alerts us to beauty that we take for granted and sounds an urgent environmental alarm. Natural silence is our nation’s fastest-disappearing resource, warns Emmy-winning acoustic ecologist Gordon Hempton, who has made it his mission to record and preserve it in all its variety—before these soul-soothing terrestrial soundscapes vanish completely in the ever-rising din of man-made noise."
