When I decided to explore the stories and tales related to trees, I was pleasantly amazed that there are so many tales related to trees, handed down from generation to generation. In this collection every tale involves a tree or forest being in one way or another. Some are cautionary tales about the perils of cutting down forests. In others, humans become transformed into trees. Trees appear in dreams. They sing and talk. They offer consolation and convey special powers. In many of the tales, a tree serves as teacher or guardian of the truth. Characters that sit under a tree or climb up into a tree are suddenly inspired to set out on a journey or receive a decisive insight. Enchanted beings, both helpful and forbidding, emerge from forest places.
These tales will carry you to a very different world. These stories have been retold from their original languages. Enjoy reading.
