In the forest, transformation is happening all the time. Leaf fall and tree rings give us a visual record of time passing. This collaborative book by Marama Warren and Sharon Armstead aims to honour the process of transformation in nature by considering a forest over time. Text reads:
‘Inky grasses brush dark hills
where scattered trees hold memories,
count centuries,
imprint history
in their annual rings.
Roots of wood and stone
bind deep
the silent scriptures,
ancient stories,
climate records
safe within.
