Next from the world of John Cayden…..

For thousands of years, people have changed forests. 
Today, we have a choice—how will our story be told?

This next book is for the curious kids and tree-loving grownups!

From the very first campfire to giant wooden ships, humans and trees have been best buddies for thousands of years — but sometimes, we haven’t been the best friends back. Travel through time to meet the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Vikings, and more as they chop, build, burn, and boom their way through history — all with the help and sometimes at the expense of trees. With silly scenes, colorful pictures, and a happy ending full of hope, this is a tree-mendous journey you won’t forget!

Before there were cities, cars, or even candy… there were trees.

And before humans had tools, clothes, or maps, they had forests.

This is the story of how trees helped humans do almost everything — cook food, stay warm, build boats, and even make giant palaces. Each time a new civilization came along, trees lent a hand or a branch. But after a while, some forests disappeared, and people had to ask: Where have all the big old trees gone?

Don’t worry — this isn’t a sad story. It’s a story about learning, growing, and planting better futures. So, grab your hiking boots and get your tree-hugging arms limbered up and let’s take a journey through the forest of time together!
