Book Spotlight – How the Trees Got Their Voices

“How the Trees Got Their Voices” is the Recipient of 11 National Book Awards

by Susan Andra Lion

Award-Winning Author Helps Young Readers Appreciate the Complex and Connected World of a Forest

Susan Andra Lion, author and illustrator of How the Trees Got Their Voices, is helping young readers become aware of the deep connection between all living things in the connected world of a forest ecosystem. Through her visually compelling and highly imaginative story of how Mother Earth gave the trees their voices, children learn that all the Earth’s inhabitants live in relation to each other, and the value of respect for all forms of life. This unique book helps its readers regard their world as a complex tapestry of life and living things.

“This medium of a two-level story about the forest, the Earth and the environment creates a unique, shared experience between children and the people who read to them because they are sharing the visual experience of this wonderful story and forest world together. But it is also one of the loveliest books that readers will ever hold in their hands.” noted Karen Stuth, owner of Satiama, LLC, a Palmer Lake, Colorado-based publishing company that has brought the book forward.

“The Earth and its inhabitants are so important to me. I have always been connected to nature and am fascinated at the interconnection of all living things – we all rely on each other, from the tiniest bugs to the giant elephants, from a mushroom to the tallest trees.” noted Lion, a sought-after professional designer and illustrator.
