The Hidden Life of Trees

By Peter Wohlleben and Fred Bernard

Graphic adaptation, available on Hoopla

Whether you’ve read Peter Wohlleben’s bestselling book or not, this illustrated adaptation is sure to captivate you. Rather than simply transposing the original work, Fred Bernard enriches the narrative by weaving in elements of Wohlleben’s personal and professional journey. The scientific concepts are made more accessible, and Benjamin Flao’s artwork adds both clarity and emotional depth. Peter Wohlleben himself contributed to the adaptation, updating scientific facts that have evolved since the book’s initial release.
