Description

Age range 3 to 6

Do you want to be a tree? It's easy.

Pretend your arms are branches, your body is a trunk, and your legs are roots. Then stand in one place and see what happens! If your parent is as patient as the dad in this story, you might get to stay outside all...day...long!

This playful story shows how entering into the make-believe world of a child can bring fun, empathy, and mindfulness. The build-up of amusing drama ends with the feel-good exuberance of the little girl who gets her Dad to play with her all day and loves being outside.

My Dad is a Tree by Jon Agee invites readers to imagine and explore the world of trees, fostering creativity and connection with nature in a charming tale about patience and the joy of play.
