A deeply moving story about community and resilience, from the pointofview of the Callery pear tree that survived the attacks on September 11, from Eisner Awardnominated authorillustrator Sean Rubin.* "A resonant, beautifully rendered testament to life and renewal." Kirkus, starred reviewIn the 1970s, nestled between the newly completed Twin Towers in New York City, a Callery pear tree was planted. Over the years, the tree provided shade for people looking for a place to rest and a home for birds, along with the first blooms of spring.On September 11, 2001, everything changed. The trees home was destroyed, and it was buried under the rubble. But a month after tragedy struck, a shocking discovery was made at Ground Zero: the tree had survived.Dubbed the Survivor Tree, it was moved to the Bronx to recover. And in the thoughtful care of the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, the Callery pear was nursed back to health. Almost a decade later, the Survivor Tree returned home and was planted in the 9/11 Memorial to provide beauty and comfortand also hope.This is the story of that treeand of a nation in recovery. Told from the trees perspective, This Very Tree is a touching tribute to first responders, the resilience of America, and the restorative power of community.
