Synopsis
One, Two, Tree! pairs the sophistication of an art book for children with the accessibility of a read-aloud nursery rhyme. This paperback edition with French flaps features brilliant original art by Durga Bai, a Gond tribal woman artist from central India most well-known for her work in the handmade book, The Night Life of Trees. Together the playful images and verse bring to life this vivacious and colorful tree of animals. From the state of Madhya Pradesh in central India, the Gonds are a community of highly visual people. They surround themselves with their stunning art, which is traditionally painted on the mud floors and walls of their homes. Hailing from a densely forested region, the tree is at the heart of their art, providing a rich source of inspiration. One, Two, Tree! is a unique and accessible way of introducing even very young children to this exceptional art form.

From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 1–This delightful book encourages active participation and close observation. As the number of animals in a tree increases from 1 dizzy ant to 10 hefty elephants, children are encouraged to spot and count them. One spread clearly identifies the number, the word, and corresponding animals. A turn of the page shows the same animals on the tree limbs, which are executed in black-and-white lines on a colorful background. As each new number is presented, the tree "grows" with the corresponding number of creatures. The newest additions are in bold colors; the previously introduced animals blend into the branches, turning the book into a game to find them. Children will enjoy the humor as each new group tries to find space in the tree. This book introduces youngsters to the traditional Gond art from central India, and is a showpiece for the artist's skillful work.–Margaret R. Tassia, Millersville University, PA
