Reviews"A very fine introduction to trees for beginning and challenged readers. Gibbons, in her usual careful manner, discusses tree seeds and tree parts, including stems, bark, roots, and leaves... Her trademark pen-and-watercolor drawings appear on every page, complementing and extending the text. A dozen trees are included in the "Identifying Trees" section showing leaves, bark, and the full tree outline -- a terrific tool for adults, too. She concludes with directions for collecting and pressing leaves and making bark rubbings and a page of interesting facts... Sure to please."-- Kirkus Reviews, "In this large-format guide, Gibbons discusses the parts of a tree and their functions, the growth of trees, and the different types of trees... The bright watercolor illustrations show cheerful children and adults observing, planting, using, and enjoying many kins of trees. In this simple, informative book, Gibbons provides a basic guide that is sure to please parents and teachers as well as children."-- Booklist, "This inviting, oversized book lives up to its subtitle. The large watercolor pictures, peopled by children of various ethnic backgrounds, make it a perfect book for classroom sharing."-- School Library Journal
