An essential introduction to trees and the vital role they play.
This comprehensive and beautifully illustrated book covers everything you wanted to know about trees! Young readers will learn about the parts of trees, the difference between deciduous and evergreen trees, leaf types, the processes of photosynthesis and respiration, a year in the life of a tree and more! A two-page-spread map shows kids the trees that live in their parts of the country. There's even a fun questionnaire to help kids identify trees in their neighborhoods. One message is clear throughout: the world depends on trees!
With so much to explore, this book is sure to inspire the "budding" tree-watcher in every kid!
