Book review from Taos News:
If I Were a Tree, What Would I Be?
By Margaret Cheasebro, illus. by Ayin Visitacion
Balboa/Hay House (2019, 21pp.)
"If I were a tree," Francisco, a young visitor to Grandfather Tree, tells his friend Katie, "I would know when you are sad and give you a hug with my branches."
The two are clambering on the huge cottonwood in the meadow together and contemplating the healing ways of nature.
"If I were a tree, I'd listen to your stories and laugh at the funny parts," Katie says.
Author Cheasebro, a reiki master and former elementary school counselor who lives in Farmington, imparts a simple, yet profound lesson, accompanied by bright, catchy illustrations: by observing, listening and empathizing, the ancient tree will "ground" one and provide safety.
Grandfather Tree is shown with a kindly, gnarled, wise face.
The children decide to visit the tree more often. "Can you feel that in your heart?" Francisco wonders. "The tree likes having us as friends."
