The Book of Tree Poems by Ana Sampson

Could there be a more pleasant way to spend a warm afternoon than lazing under a tree reading poetry inspired by these shade-giving wonders of the world? Trees have sparked some of the biggest literary imaginations over the ages and - as the climate emergency escalates - it has never been more important to appreciate our vital connection to them. This beautifully illustrated anthology of sixty tree poems is a celebration of our love of trees. With poems by some of the world's best-loved poets including Philip Larkin, Ted Hughes, Carol Ann Duffy, Thomas Hardy and Elizabeth Barrett Browning, The Book of Tree Poems will help you see trees as you've never seen them before.

Ana Sampson is the author of many bestselling anthologies including I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud and Other Poems You Half-Remember from School and Green and Pleasant Land: Best-Loved Poems of the British Countryside. Ana studied English Literature at the University of Sheffield, achieving both a BA and an MA. She works in publishing PR and has appeared multiple times on radio and television discussing books and poetry. Ana lives in Surrey with her husband, two daughters and two demanding cats.

Sarah Maycock (illustrator) - Nestled in a studio above a coffee shop on the south coast of England, Kingston University graduate Sarah Maycock creates magic with paint brushes. At the heart of Sarah's paintings (and they have so much heart), is the way she captures a place, a moment, or the spirit of a person or animal, almost bottling something of their essence with each brush stroke. Sarah's career highlights to date include her painting of Liberty London for their luxury advent calendar; her whale paintings for the Natural History Museums' 'Beneath the Surface' exhibition; and her wonderful dog paintings for Angus Hyland's The Book of Dog. In fact, our four-legged friends are a constant source of inspiration in her work: her illustrations also feature in poetry anthologies The Book of Dog Poems and The Book of Cat Poems.
