Sinopsis

By the authors of The Biggest Footprint, winner of the James Cropper Wainwright Prize for Children's Nature Writing 2022.

Slow down and see the big picture in this warm, witty and beautifully illustrated book for children and adults inviting us to wonder at our precious time on Earth.

You are invited to travel through the ages in the company of a 4,000-year-old yew tree named Eunice, whose perspective on time is very different from our own. Her wisdom will get you pondering: why is humanity in such a rush lately? Why does time fly and sometimes drag? And how can the actions of one generation change things for those who follow?

Guiding you on a journey from the extremely long past to the head-spinning present and the unshaped future, Eunice reminds us that in a world that seems to be travelling at warp speed, taking your time is sometimes the best thing you can do. After all, some of the most important things in life can't be sped up.

A Tree is a Time Machine is an antidote to uncertain times, and the perfect gift for anyone who has ever felt like they just want the world to slow down.
