The Song of the Tree by Coralie Bickford-Smith

**Nominated for the 2021 CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal**

'A masterwork, every page a sumptuous feast of colour and composition' - Financial Times, Summer Books of 2020

The lyrical, heart-warming new tale from the award-winning designer and creator of The Fox and the Star

When the season changes she must say goodbye, but she isn't ready to let go.
As she listens to the other animals, Bird learns to sing a new song.

The Song of the Tree Reviews

Another exquisite, clothbound tale from Coralie Bickford-Smith... [her] illustrations are so vivid and patterned, reminiscent of traditional African wax prints, that each page feels alive. The night-time stars and fireflies sparkle, though there's no glitter or foil used, while elsewhere the text swoops bird-like across the page * Observer *
Depicts nature at its most majestic and tells a lovely fable about belonging * Financial Times *
Never have the woods looked more beautiful than in this exquisite new fable about growing up, exploring the world and understanding where you belong * Angels and Urchins Magazine *
Heart-warming . . . a celebration about the world around us and the importance of the natural world at a time when we need it the most * Creative Review *
Wonderful, poetically told . . . beautifully designed on the page to match the spirit of the words, tells of the importance of shelter and its power to encourage confidence and tolerance as well as empowering development and independence. The interdependence of the bird and the tree in this story is a beautiful telling of a universal theme -- Julia Eccleshare * LoveReading *
Magical ... an ode to nature -- Best Children's Books of 2020 * Observer *
