Tree With Golden Apples

"In this beautifully illustrated book, author Susan Strauss takes readers on a magical journey through the world of plants by telling twelve myths from around the world that showcase everything from the creation of corn to the tree of life, from how plants provide medicine to the importance of death in the plant world as a requirement for the renewal of life. For every myth, Dr. Ian Edwards then explores an aspect of the science found in each, making connections between the botanical and agricultural wisdom found throughout, further unfolding our understanding of the interconnectedness of Indigenous wisdom and science. The author also shares her vast knowledge of the art of storytelling, as she encourages readers to tell the stories themselves"--
