Dancing with Trees is a collection of color photographs and stories that explore how one family has journeyed through life under the watchful eyes of individual trees that often become their soulmates. The author explains how these trees on his farm have served as witnesses and companions to love, laughter, disappointments, and milestones that all people experience.

Each of the twenty-eight stories focuses on a specific tree and memories associated with it. For example, "Go Skinny Dipping" recalls how a Sweetbay tree near a swimming hole watched the beautiful moment when young boys did not see race as a barrier to sharing life's adventures and became life-long friends. A Magnolia tree reminds us of the sacrifices a relationship might undergo to strengthen love.

Not only is Dancing with Trees an entrancing look at memories that resonate with everyone, it also includes stunning photographs of each tree which further enhance the enjoyment. Readers will have an instant connection between the trees and the lessons they represent. In addition, interspersed quotes from Southern authors about the importance of trees deepen the understanding of how trees are interwoven in the lives of us all.

Dancing With Trees shares a fantastic metaphor for life as the trees represent love, memories, and family experiences. This book will leave readers with a deep appreciation for trees as well as for the simple pleasures in life.
