Hello, Trees
by Bezuidenhout, Bailey / Lebedeva, Maria
Description
This is a story about trees and how we may be very much like them. A little girl wanders through a forest and asks questions about the trees she sees. She runs her hands along their trunks... the lines in the bark are so different to her, yet somewhat familiar. Are they like wrinkles in her granny's skin? If that's the case, what do the leaves say? And the roots and the branches and the colour of their flowers?
Hello, Trees investigates who we are by taking a closer look at the fascinating lives of trees. We are more than just a body and a name. We are more than just our feelings. Like trees, we are a culmination of many things. Life is a journey of imagination, of nature, and of ourselves. It sparks questions about who we are and what makes us who we are.

Author Biography
Bailey Bezuidenhout is a children's book author, who lives in Johannesburg with her husband and six year old twin daughters.
After studying a Masters in Media in New York, the idea of writing children’s book lit a spark in Bailey and she began to write and illustrate more and more. Now, her notebooks are a maze of scribbles, arrows, bent corners and “turn the page” codes written in tiny hand writing. After four years in New York City, she returned home and became a full time mother before publishing her first title with Imagnary House in South Africa, Hello, Trees. Bailey is passionate about writing. She has a yearning for the quotidian of life that gets lost in the shadows of winter sun or at the back of toy cupboards when the world grows up around you.
As a mother of twins, she is an expert in magic and make-believe, negotiation, fairy letters, celebrating difference, telling stories, and creating marvellous characters.
