Hella! I love this book! I've had lots of reading for class but I still find time to read a chapter or two on Saturday morning over a cup of coffee. Great book if you are a tree hugger!

A book about Julia Butterfly Hill and her quest to save the Giant Redwoods. Her two years spent in a tree to bring awareness to the plight of the redwoods. Always interesting to read about the struggle and determination of someone so impassioned about what she believes in.

A true story about a passionate young woman who fights to save some of the last remaining Redwoods. A wonderful and inspirational book; I loved it.

"Records a courageous act of civil disobedience that places her squarely in the tradition of Thoreau."
