(4) K-3 Illustrated by Helen Cann & Helen Cann. Singh has borrowed elements from stories from many parts of the world, including China, Nigeria, and India, and created her own retellings that pay homage to trees. Stately in conception, with handsome watercolors and tree facts that start off each story, the stories are a bit long-winded but engrossing.
