This is that gift for new parents you know they didn’t ask for, but if you got it for them they’d love you for it. I love this! Reminds me of the book I loved as a child: The Giving Tree.
All of our kids live in the age of ebooks / kindle etc
What a great reminder for them of the historical connection between the printed words and nature. I wonder if future generations will see our attachment to books made of paper in the same way as we see cave paintings?

That would look so good in yellow, against a grey wall. Or vice versa.

Just stumbled on your site – the book tree is a great visual aperitif.

Nice, I bet it still looks really good even when really full of books. Great for a child’s room obviously.

Love that bookshelf. Where can I get one? And how does it attach to the wall?
Hopefully it’s not made of plastic, but some classy material like wood.
