by Susan Polk Van Dusen (Author), John S. Polk (Illustrator)

What's so special about a tree? Why do they matter to you and to me?

Get your child excited about nature and the world around them.

From the backyard oak to the towering redwood, each and every tree plays an important role in our world. Not only do trees provide shelter for birds and other animals, they have the power to create the very oxygen we need to survive. And don't forget the beauty trees add to our environment with their bursts of color in spring and fall.

Set alongside her late father's original artwork, the author's gentle, rhyming verse makes this book the perfect story for curious children and the grownups who love them.
