Author Visit with Louise Wannier: Creator of Tree Spirits

We’re thrilled to welcome Louise Wannier, author of Tree Spirits and Tree Spirits Around the World, for a special reading and interactive presentation!

Louise invites children (and the young at heart!) to look more closely at the natural world around them — to see the faces and feelings hidden in the bark, branches, and roots of the trees we pass every day. During her visit, Louise will share stories and images from her books, guide children in finding their own “tree spirits,” and spark conversations about creativity, curiosity, and caring for the earth.

Following the presentation, families can participate in a Tree Spirits Walk — an activity that helps children explore the trees in their neighborhoods, draw what they see, and imagine the stories behind their discoveries. Copies of Louise’s books will be available for purchase thanks to The Bookstore.
