The Tree Book for Kids and Their Grown-ups

How do trees grow? Why do leaves change color? What kind of tree is that? After you and your children read this book, you’ll know! Featuring 33 different trees that grow in North America, The Tree Book’s beautiful illustrations show each tree as it appears in a particular season, as well as life-size depictions of its buds, leaf, flower, fruit, and seed. Histories of each tree bring to life its character and significance to us.

• Lovely, full-color illustrations on every page
