Stretch to the Sun: From a Tiny Sprout to the Tallest Tree on Earth by Carrie A. Pearson

5.0

Celebrating the redwood trees, Pearson details the magnificence of these trees and tells the story of one particular tree that started off as such a tiny shoot, but now grows tall, perhaps tallest, in the forest.
Don't miss the fascinating backmatter. I thought this was really interesting - did you know no one knows the site of 2 trees that are racing to be the tallest tree? Scientists actually will not tell you where they are, keeping the location hidden in the hopes the trees will continue to grow and grow!
