The message reaches mother trees who can #39;t spare the energy from their own little ones, others who are sick and can #39;t help but ultimately, one friendly paper birch tree helps her in her time of need. When the winter comes and birch tree needs help in return, the strong, not so little fir tree withe her evergreen leaves can come to the rescue. Our little tree learns that she is part of a loving, caring community, filled with family and kind strangers of entirely different species. She learns all the ways that there are to care and be cared for, and most importantly that she is not alone. After all, the forest is only as strong as its smallest tree. Trees can communicate using up to #39;50 words #39; and can send messages of distress, warn each other about incoming danger in the form of disease or pests, learn which trees are their parents and which are their offspring. If a tree is in danger, others can send spare sugars and water via the network and even sabotage trees they see as a threat. And they do it all via the wood wide web.

A horrific tale of the slave trade, destined to become a classic New York Times* The New York Times 100 Notable Books of 2025* Timeâ ™s 100 Must Read Books of 2025* The New Yorker 12 Essential Non-Fiction ReadsFrom the New York Times bestselling author of Cobalt Red, discover the incredible true story and page-turning account of the 18th century slave ship, often known as the Zong yet actually named the Zorg - ironically meaning care - that sparked the human rights campaign to end the slave trade. Perfect for fans of David Grannâ ™s The Wager and The Wide, Wide Sea by Hampton Sides. â ˜Remarkable, rivetingâ ™, Adam Hochschild, historian and bestselling author of King Leopold s Ghost and Bury the ChainsIn 1781, the Zorg set off from The Netherlands to West Africa and from there onto the Caribbean. The fateful voyage would alter the course of history forever. By the time its journey ends, the Zorg would become the first undeniable argument against slavery. When a series of unpredictable weather events and navigational errors led to the Zorg sailing off course and running low on supplies, the ship s captain threw more than a hundred slaves overboard in order to save the crew and the most valuable slaves. The ship s owners then claimed their loss on insurance, a first for slaves who had not been killed due to insurrection or died of natural causes. The insurers refused to pay due to the higher than usual mortality rate of the slaves on board, leading to a trial which initially found in their favour, in which Chief Justice Mansfield compared the slaves to horses. Thanks to the outrage of one man present in court that day, a retrial was held. For the first time, concepts such as human rights and morality entered the discourse on slavery in a courtroom case that boiled down to a simple yet profound question: Were the Africans on board people or cargo?In his riveting new book, bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize finalist Siddharth Kara brings history to life, showcasing how the Zorgâ ™s fateful voyage exposed the harsh reality of the slave trade. The case catapulted the emerging anti-slavery movement to one of the most consequential moral campaigns that changed the course of history.
