About this listen
“The Trees know.”
A cryptic message from Nana as she dies sends Ruth rushing to her special place in nature, The Listening Tree, for help. Transported through time by the Tree, from 1896 to 2035, she meets Michael and Arabeth from the future. They learn they are members of the Society of Rainwalkers—humans able to time travel through trees. The Trees need their help, or by 2050, climate change will devastate the planet.
Will Ruth, aspiring writer and word lover, Michael, wannabe pilot and Star Trek fan, and Arabeth, future geneticist and science enthusiast, successfully save the Tree for the future?
The Listening Tree is a magical realism adventure filled with the excitement of time travel, the thrill of discovery, and the strength found in our connections with each other and with nature.

Story
No electricity, no family, no connection to the outside world. For eight years, Cooper and his young daughter, Finch, have lived in isolation in a remote cabin in the northern Appalachian woods. And that's exactly the way Cooper wants it, because he's got a lot to hide. Finch has been raised on the books filling the cabin’s shelves and the beautiful but brutal code of life in the wilderness. But she’s starting to push back against the sheltered life Cooper has created for her - and he’s still haunted by the painful truth of what it took to get them there.

Silla, the ruler of Nova, hosts an annual tournament for the less fortunate of her citizens to prove themselves and win entrance to the Academy, where they can train to compete at nationals.

When Fiona's family moves to a new town to be closer to her older sister's figure skating club—and far from Fiona's close-knit group of friends—nobody seems to notice Fiona's unhappiness. Alone and out of place, Fiona ventures to the town's library, a rambling mansion donated by an heiress. And there she finds a gripping mystery novel about a small town, family secrets, and a tragic disappearance. Lost Lake is a town of restless spirits, and Fiona will learn that both help and danger come from unexpected places—maybe even from the sister she thinks doesn't care about her anymore.

A story that will keep you intrigued…
My family listened to this story during a car road trip…middle & high schooler. We all enjoyed it and found the adventures experienced with time traveling kept us interested. We had a great discussion on how taking care of our planet now is critical for our future. Highly recommend this story.

The trees know…
A great book for our times and a super intro to discussions with your kids about caring for the natural world around us. The narrator’s voice is very clear, warm, and reassuring - like a mom reading your favorite bedtime story - just perfect for this book. She really brings you into the story and provides all the charming characters with distinct voices. Highly recommend!
