Tall Tree Short Stories by Gabriel Hemery

Let your imagination grow and prepare for a thrilling silvan adventure in this remarkable multi-genre collection of tree stories.

Look out for love and loss, brace for dystopia and utopia, and jump forwards and backwards in time, but beware as you follow the path through the dark forest, nature can have a sting in its tale.

Tall Trees Short Stories is a collection of more than 25 extraordinary tales exploring the natural world and our relationship with it, written by environmentalist and celebrated tree author Gabriel Hemery.
