Today is Tu BiShvat, a Jewish holiday also called Rosh HaShanah La'Ilanot or “New Year of the Trees.” To help celebrate the trees, check out Martin Lemelman’s graphic novel The Miracle Seed, which tells the story of the Judean date palm’s miraculous rebirth. Link to book in bio!

When Marion Deichmann was 9, two French police officers arrested her mother in their apartment as part of the mass arrests of Jews in Paris, in 1942. “My whole life’s wish was to tell the world of the absolute evil of the Nazis,” she said. trib.al/fPboDEx

Author-illustrator Martin Lemelman didn’t see much flora and fauna where he grew up in Brooklyn, but he developed a fascination with the world we live in. His WORLD OF TREES invites kids into his garden to explore, ask questions, and be surrounded by nature. Now on submission.
