Cute junior non-fiction book that was more a picture book than actually informative.

Trees has some wonderful artwork for this story. It looks like the trees have been finger-painted. They are wonderful. This is a celebration of trees in a very beginning book.

I didn’t read this to either child as it’s beneath them. If one of them was big into art styles, I would show them, but they really aren’t. I thought it was a nice beginning book and it’s about one of my favorite subjects - Trees.

A wonderful read and a true inspiration. The art is exquisite. Good for those parents seeking books that are memorable and that are not twaddle, as per the Charlotte Mason method of home education. A must for those who home school!

Beautiful pictures and a sweet introduction to the very basics of trees. Not quite poetry, but lyrical text.

Here in the middle of the summer, while forest fires rage across the world, I have been pondering the significance of trees and what happens when they disappear.
I like this book a lot. It's is beautifully illustrated in an abstract fashion. Each chunk of text imparts important information about trees. I am especially happy by the page that states, "Trees use their roots to communicate and to help one another." It's true, but I wasn't sure this nugget of truth would make it into a picture book.
We need to do more to save trees and ourselves.
