A New Tree Biology and Dictionary by Alex Shigo was used in 3 or 4 of my college classes. But it depends on what you want to learn about (e.g. Mensuration, Silviculture, log grading/scaling, etc). A New Tree Biology will at least give you a good basis for most things, and it's not too bad in terms of being a "dry" textbook. (For example, the first sentence of chapter 2 is "Trees are large, heavy plants that can kill you if they fall on you")

If you're looking for less technical information, and more stories then check out The Forest Unseen: A Year's Watch in Nature by David George Haskell and A Sand County Almanac by Aldo Leopold (another book used numerous times while in college). If you want a bit of a mix The Hidden Life of Trees: What They Feel, How They Communicate by Peter Wohlleben is fantastic. While they might not be all information, they do give you a lot to think about when considering ecosystems and provide interesting ethical perspectives.
