PersonaliTrees by Joan Klostermann-Ketels

ISBN: 978-1-84409-191-1
Every tree has a face, a story, and a personality! One needs only to take a walk in the woods to see beauty, contortion, loveliness and hardship in the form of trunks and branches and marvel at each unique design, formed by nature's fury and grace.

Let the Human Spirit Awaken in the Presence of Trees

112 pages hardcover, 51 tree photographs

This is a book that will tell you a different story every time you open its cover. The images that are captured are only as definitive as your imagination and eye will see. The inspirational quotes matching each photograph reinforce the message.

    "Many times I've stopped my car to admire the beauty of a lone tree in a field or paused on a hike in the woods to stand in awe of my wooden companions on the path. Have you? If so, you'll understand why this book 'called my name'."

    "Books come in many forms, some are exciting adventures of human endurance, others are glimpses inside the human psyche, the list of genres is endless. Some books though are much more than just words on a page..."

    We just received the book today. As I pored over the quotes and illustrations, I found myself touched, but also wondering whether an emotional response was warranted from a simple coffee table book. Generally oversized of heavy construction designed chiefly to inspire conversation or alleviate boredom, prose becomes of no great concern when picking it off the table — unless like me, you felt the passion infused in this notable work. Words in perfect order do not exist, but the effect this book had on me will be considered a dramatic assortment of speech and visual chocolate. Thanks!

    What a delightful book. Joan captures her friendly trees in a beautifully organized fashion that keeps the reader wanting for more page after page. Her short explaination of her beloved sister's passing and the sad report of the hail storm were wonderful bonuses to the trees. My favorite page was her original poem at the end. I can't wait for her next publication. Enjoy!
