From Tree to Sea, by Shelley Moore Thomas and illustrated by Christopher Silas Neal, is a lyrical children's picture book about mindfulness, appreciating nature, and finding life lessons in the world around us, from tall trees to the vast ocean, encouraging readers to open their eyes to the interconnectedness of all things.

It features poetic observations from children's perspectives, showing how elements like clouds teach floating above problems, soil teaches support, and a baby bird teaches bravery to fly, making it a calming read-aloud for young children about resilience and wonder.
