Man Who Planted Trees: Generosity of Spirit as a Source of Happiness

by Jean Giono
Watercolors by Roderick MacIver

First Edition

The Man Who Planted Trees is a story of two men—one younger, one older—who encounter each other in the mountains. The older man is a shepherd and tree-planter; the younger man is in search of adventure or perhaps on a personal quest. Over several decades, as result of occasional contact between the two, the Shepherd shapes the hiker's perception of what is important in life.

The Heron Dance edition of this timeless story features the beautiful watercolors of Roderick MacIver and conversations and illustrations with Oscar award-winning filmmaker Frédéric Back.
