If a tree could talk, what would it say to you? Join author Jessica Jones for a read-aloud of Mommy, Do Trees Talk? and meet Ruby and Gill, a talking tree who becomes her unexpected friend.

After the story, children can finish the sentence “If trees could talk…” or draw what they imagine a tree would tell them. Families can also purchase a copy of the book and have it signed by Jessica.

Registration is required. Visit the Registration page to secure your spot!
Storytime is included with regular admission and free for Texas Discovery Gardens members.

About the Author
Jessica Jones wrote Mommy, Do Trees Talk? to encourage young readers to explore nature, listen with curiosity, and treat the world around them with kindness. Through Ruby and Gill’s friendship, she hopes children discover that friends can be found in unexpected places and that even the smallest voices have something important to say.
