Items related to Another Way to Climb a Tree
When Lulu's feeling well, she climbs every tree in sight, especially
the tallest ones,
the ones with the widest branches,
the ones with the stickiest sap.
But when Lulu's sick, she's not allowed outside. She wonders if the trees are lonely without her. Maybe the birds are too.
Without Lulu, nobody climbs the trees but the sun. . . which casts a shadow on Lulu's wall. . . for her to climb.

About the Author:
From School Library Journal:
Liz Garton Scanlon is the author of many picture books for young readers including All the World, illustrated by Marla Frazee, which was a Caldecott Honor book and a New York Times bestseller. When she's not writing, Liz travels, reads, runs, hikes (preferably with her dog), practices yoga, and spends time with her husband and their two terrific teenage daughters.
Hadley Hooper works as an editorial illustrator for numerous magazines and newspapers. She illustrated The Iridescence of Birds as well as the A Small Thing...But Big. She lives in Denver, Colorado.
PreS-Gr 2—Daredevils will cheer redheaded Lulu's bravery. Clad in short overalls, she scales only the most challenging trees—those with the stickiest sap, the ones that catch kites, and even trees other kids fall out of. When Lulu is sick and confined to bed, she's missed by the birds and trees, and she woefully watches the sun and moon take over her climbing routes. Lulu's jealousy disappears when she discovers that the enormous shadow on her bedroom wall is of "the tallest, widest, biggest tree of all," which she proceeds to climb, swing from, and hide in...with her imagination. Scanlon celebrates the simple pleasure of nature. Hooper's relief prints use a soft palette and retro line figures, including Lulu's white dog, who always tags along. Details such as Lulu clasping a teddy bear as she climbs and her laurel headband add charm. VERDICT The serene tone and pace cleverly balance the heroine's restlessness. Introduce this for Earth Day, for Arbor Day, or with themes of imagination. A perfect choice for anyone stuck inside on a glorious day.—Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VA
