"The Tree Lady: The True Story of How One Tree-Loving Woman Changed a City Forever" tells the inspiring true story of Katherine Olivia Sessions, a pioneering botanist and conservationist in late 19th-century San Diego. Passionate about trees and the environment, Sessions transformed her city by spearheading efforts to plant thousands of trees, turning barren landscapes into lush green spaces. Through her determination and love for nature, she not only beautified the city but also educated the community about the importance of conservation. This beautifully illustrated tale celebrates her legacy and dedication to making a positive impact on her community through the power of trees.
