Description:
1 v. (unpaged) : col. ill. ; 24 x 28 cm.
Notes:
"Not far from here, I have seen a
house
held
up
by the hands of
trees
. This is its story"--T.p.
Summary:
When the
house
was new, not a single tree remained on its perfect lawn to give shade from the sun. The children in the
house
trailed the scent of wild
trees
to neighbouring lots, where thick bushes offered secret places to play. When the children grew
up
and moved away, their father, alone in the
house
, continued his battle against blowing seeds, plucking out sprouting
trees
- until one day he, too, moved away. Then, as the empty
house
began its decline, the
trees
began to take over.
