Book Review: How to be More Tree

 

How to be More Tree, published in 2019, is a short self-help/advice book written by Liz Marvin and illustrated by Annie Davidson. The hardcover version is 125 pages long, segmented into two pages, with one page of the two-page combination having an illustration of some variety of tree, and the other page having a quote such as "beginnings are always small" and "find your happy place" and a paragraph about how the particular tree's behavior applies to the quote. It is very easy to read because there is only text on every other page, and the text is very short. It can easily be finished in a couple of hours or less, depending on how quickly you read and how much time you have. Ultimately, while I would not say it falls into the category of a life-changing self-help book, it provides good advice and interesting information about various types of trees.
