A Year Among the Trees

Let nature tell its story—leaf by leaf, branch by branch.

Twelve portraits of trees to awaken children’s curiosity and spark their desire to play outdoors. Short poetic texts invite young readers to observe, imagine, and feel. The cherry tree, loved by birds and children alike. The linden, whose perfume enchants bees—and more. This picture book is a sensory journey through nature: lush illustrations and lyrical words guide children into the green world, helping them see it not just with their eyes, but with wonder.

• An imaginative introduction to nature, encouraging mindful observation and emotional connection with the plant world.
• Written by Valentina Levrini, illustrated by the unmistakable hand of Irene Penazzi.
