MOM'S CHOICE AWARDS® GOLD MEDALIST: A STORY AS AGELESS AS THE FOREVER TREES IT CELEBRATES.

"[A]chingly beautiful..." --Kirkus Reviews

"[G]reat Mother Redwood enchants......" --New York Times

"[E]liza's Forever Trees is a compelling and powerful account, very highly recommended...it stands out as an exceptional tale of personal and world discoveries. Add Alex Walton's vivid drawings and you have beautiful creation of hope and color." --Diane Donovan, Children's Editor, Midwest Book Review, Children's Bookshelf

"[S]tephanie Lisa Tara's writing has such a perfect balance of lightness and depth;the reader sees all creatures, (even snakes) as part of a kind kingdom inhabited with their own native tongue. Her creativity gives the reader treats like French speaking squirrels and a fan favorite in her L-ladybug lingo. "Eet eez mine," the squirrel said in her French accent, which made her angry glare all the more assertive. "Oh mly," said the ladybug. "Ohhhhh mllllly," said several other ladybugs. --Mare Henderson, Teacher, Mom

Celebrating Forests and Books

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 12 luglio 2011

Acquisto verificato

This enchanting story succeeds at several levels. "Eliza's Forever Trees" is the tale of a young girl seeking to understand the death of her mother. Unable to speak or otherwise communicate with people, she journeys through a forest, where she befriends a sequence of its inhabitants, in search of Great Mother Redwood, a towering and ancient very special tree. Eliza is guided by a heart condition: "wrong beats" steer her away from danger.

The first chorus of animal friends is delightfully unexpected in a book for young people, with an emphasis on insects: frogs, owls, clams, grasshoppers, ladybugs, butterflies, and beloved banana slugs. Then the action shifts to the fuzzy mammalian set: an auntie-deer, a fox, chipmunks and bears, and at-first evil bats that see the good in friendship and ultimately save the others from a deadly storm. The book is a lesson in forest ecology.

"Eliza's Forever Trees" is also a celebration of children's literature. Author Stephanie Lisa Tara has dipped into freely-available classics, including Anne of Green Gables, Charlotte's Web, the Velveteen Rabbit, and of course Alice in Wonderland, of which the book is reminiscent. Eliza's grandfather, with whom she lives, uses her mother's many books as doorstops and kindling. Eventually the forest residents make good use of the pages.

The illustrations, by Alex Walton, are spectacular, and the writing lyrical: "She had always been here, always watching and protecting, guarding her family, as all mothers do, for mothers always come back."

Finally, as a geneticist, I can't help but applaud "Eliza's Forever Trees" for another reason: a positive look at an individual with a mutation - a majestic albino tree.

Beautiful child's story that adults will love as well~

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 7 marzo 2012

This is a beautiful story about a frail little girl searching for her "missing" mother. Living with an aging grandfather who uses books as fire kindling, Eliza befriends a butterfly that flies in her window. Eliza misses the stories her mother used to read to her, so she begins to read to her new friend. They set off to find her mother in the redwood forest near her grandfather's home. Eliza finds new friends in the forest, who want to accompany her on her quest. The author has woven beautiful vocabulary and sentence structure into this story--such a pleasure to read. It was so fun to meet the animals and insects, each with their own special language and gifts. From the owl to the deer to the bear, each and every one of them was kind and helpful to Eliza in a way only they could be. There was a continuing theme of a mother's love throughout the book--Eliza found lots of mothers to help her, as she searched for her own. At the end of the book, she finds what she is searching for, although perhaps a little differently than the reader might imagine.

Loved getting up close and personal with the Redwoods.

Following Eliza on her journey to find the Mother was both moving and educational. It was also fun to find that many of her favorite books, which were quoted at times, were also favorites of mine. The illustrations were also a bonus.

I read this on my kindle app on my Surface, was truly satisfied.

I live in the pacific northwest and on a vacation to the California Redwoods 12 years ago, I brought home 3 redwood sampling. They are thriving in my back yard. While reading this story, I couldn't help but think of them and of the new sampling that have surfaced.

A charming and heartwarming story

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 10 aprile 2013

Acquisto verificato

In the book Eliza is missing her mother, not quite remembering what happened to her, and living with her grandfather with a "wrong-beating heart" and a million books that remind her of her mother's love for stories.

As she sets out to find the Great Mother Redwood and answers with a butterfly friend, she meets a wide variety of friendly animals who offer their help and support on Eliza's quest. While Eliza might not find exactly what she was hoping for, her journey does have a satisfying end.

Eliza's Forever Trees is a beautiful testament to the endurance of love, stories and nature in our hearts. It calls to mind another recent tale of a girl's adventure through a wooded forest with a lively cast of animal characters, The Cats of Tanglewood Forest by Charles de Lint. Both books inspire a love of nature and creatures, and both feature a strong and lovable heroine. Their adventures resemble Alice's fall down the rabbit hole, and would certainly appeal to fans of Alice in Wonderland.

Enchanting Tale

I thought this was a charming tale of a child on a quest to find her missing mother. She can't remember what has happened and goes to the forest near her grandfather's house to search. She makes friends with the forest animals and bugs and enjoys learning about them. She works through some hard times with them and learns to love them all as well as the great Redwoods.
