Holmes, Tana: - Tana Holmes is a native of the Rocky Mountains but when she moved to the South for college, she met and married a New Orlinean. As a nature lover all her life, she now had a guide to introduce her to a whole different environment and lifestyle. She learned to love constantly green trees with dripping Spanish moss, Southern drawls, and oh, that magnificent New Orleans food! As a lifetime educator she wants to accomplish two things with The History Tree Series books. Teaching little people about their heritage, while offering adult readers the opportunity to guide and explain the tough parts of history. The other goal is to encourage children to love old trees and preserve them as living ambassadors of the past, present, and future. Who better to teach about times gone by than a talking eyewitness tree? As more volumes in the series debut, Tana anticipates an opportunity to reach children globally with their own local "celebritree" story teller.
