    TREE BASICS is a book offering hope for the future of children. Offering information correcting older textbooks that were incorrect or the trees were wrong for not doing what such books stated they are supposed to be doing. Offers hope in a world where people still by-products on shelves leading them to believe humans feed trees. In a world that humans believe they can plant a forest, an ecosystem were children otherwise will be taught that trees are a natural renewable resource that destroying ecosystems is ok if you just plant a group of trees. The book offers correct planting. We have donated thousands of TREE BASICS around the world. In the history of humankind, this is the first time such correct information is available. Anatomy must precede physiology always. Before you understand how the parts are connected and their processes together, you must first know what the correct parts are. This book addresses above and below ground. It belongs in every school to nurture the children’s curiosity. Simple to understand because “THE AUTHOR UNDERSTOOD THE TOPIC SO WELL”. The only book to reveal the most wonderful most required feature of trapping the energy from the sun.

    I just want to say that Dr Alex Shigo and his teachings into Plant pathology and arboriculture has changed my life and he has truly helped me save myself with his teachings and philosophies. Thank you Dr Shigo for all your wisdom and teachings. I was truly lost until I came across your literature when I was working as a landscaper and I started my introduction into plants. I read one paragraph you wrote and I was hooked and I haven’t stopped learning about plants ever since and it’s been going on 4 years now. You are the light in the darkness Dr Alex and thank you for helping me save myself and Awakening my understanding of how truly alive plants really are and how they all deserve our utmost respect, dedication to preservation and for us as a community to come together by educating ourselves properly about proper plant healthcare and then implementing it into our daily lives! So thank you Dr Alex! I will be vigilant in my pursuit to protect hardwood trees and help my friends come up with a resistant strain against the EAB and I will always “Touch Trees”_Dr Alex Shigo.
