Trees communicate. They migrate. They protect. They heal. This year for Arbor Day finds our favorite fiction, nonfiction books relating to trees.

There are tens of thousands of tree species on Earth, but writer Daniel Lewis focused in on just a dozen in his book, Twelve Trees. Lewis believes trees and people have more in common than you might think. “These twelve trees reflect aspects of ourselves. We coexist with them, and thus have a responsibility to understand them better.”

Walsh, better known as “Ms. Stephanie” online, has been featured on social media accounts with some videos drawing millions of people to watch. Her profile claims she is “inspiring the world to dance like no one is watching.” But they are watching, with a fanbase that is rapidly expanding everyday.“Dance isn't just your body, it's what you're feeling inside about the dance and it's what comes out here in your face,” Walsh said. “That's what I want to put through my movement, is how much fun it is, how much joy it gives you.”
