The Tree Lady

Follow the remarkable life of a hidden hero who made a difference one tree at a time. In this moving picture book, The Tree Lady, the wonderful true story of Katherine Olivia Session is unearthed and readers learn how she transformed San Diego from a dry desert town into the tree covered and lush city it is now known to be. 

When Kate Sessions arrives for her first teaching job in the dry desert town of San Diego, she is shocked to find there were almost no trees. Kate decided that San Diego needed trees more than anything else. So this trailblazing young woman singlehandedly started a giant movement that transformed the town into a green, garden-filled oasis. Now, more than 100 years after Kate first arrived in San Diego, her gorgeous gardens and parks can be found all over the city. 

Part biography, part inspirational story, this book follows the remarkable life of green-thumbed pioneer and activist Kate Sessions and inspires us all to follow our dreams, use our talents, and stay strong in the face of adversity.
