The Book Tree

Paul Czajak

When young Arlo accidentally drops a book on the Mayor’s head, the Mayor decides books are dangerous and destroys all the books in town! But thanks to Arlo’s imagination and perseverance, the Mayor finds that suppressing stories cannot stop them from blossoming more beautifully than ever. This timely allegorical tale will be a useful tool for starting conversations with children about the power of activism and the written word.
AGES: 4 to 9 AUTHOR: Paul Czajak struggled with reading and writing as a kid, and never thought he’d end up writing books. But after working as a scientist for twenty years, he discovered that his creativity could no longer be contained to the laboratory. Now he hopes his books will be the seeds to a new generation of book gardeners!
