About This Book
Talking Trees: The Real Story By: Michelle Hinkson Gaskin Talking Trees: The Real Story is about the secret lives of trees when they think people are looking. For Michelle Gaskin, she can never look at a tree and not see “something” suspiciously... mischievous… and thinks others will start seeing them as not just beautiful, or majestic, but comical. During the Pandemic of 2020, everyone and everything seemed somber, but the trees… well, they continued to take it one second at a time, which is how they grow. That is why they have survived so long. Talking Trees is unique because trees do not think we see what they are up to because they are so good at standing still when we are looking; they are cunning. These words are exactly as they are meant to be... a reason to smile or bust out laughing. We could always use more laughter.
