This Very Tree: A Story of 9/11, Resilience, and Regrowth by Sean Rubin

 The Callery pear tree ,which grew at the base of the Twin Towers, relates the horrific events of 9/11 and its recovery.  

The illustrations are powerful.

Consideration: In the author's note Mr. Rubin attributes one part of the tree's healing "through its own inner strength".  He also stated the tree was a creature.  

-Borrowed from the library.
