Warm colors and true love of trees September 27, 2008
Emily Taylor (Northern Utah)
This is probably one of the cutest explanations of the life cycle of a sugar maple I have ever read. The story is told in first-person for an adorable and up-close view of a tree story.
The pictures are one of the best aspects: cute, creative collages done in a wide variety of materials.
I also appreciated the extra-sciency page at the back. Very handy book to have around.
Myriad of illustrative techniques. Informative book about leaves. September 19, 2006

The illustrator uses vivid photographs, paper cut images, nature colors and pressed leaves to illustrate a child's description of a seed growing to a sapling. The writing consists of nice large letters and smaller typed descriptions of 'bird treat' or 'sugar maple', 'round-pointed spade' or 'downy woodpecker'. The last four pages of the book are an indepth look at leaves, buds, roots and sap, bar, seeds, etc. Great book to read to kids in the fall days. Good to use with an exercise of asking kids to go outside and each bring in something different. As you read the book to them, they will have a tactile example to go along with the pages in the book.
My Kids Love It! September 11, 2006

This book is a must-read every autumn in our home and was purchased for us by Grandma who saw how enthusiastically one of her other grandchildren responded to it. When I surprised them with it last night at bedtime, (along with When Autumn Comes, also recommended) they hung on every word. This book is both colorful and educational and has become a "classic" seasonal book for our family. My daughters (now age 9) plan to read it to their 5-6 y/o school book-buddy this year. You can't go wrong with this selection.

I didn't really like this book. I wasn't ass colorful as other books. It mostly talked about leaves and trees. I didn't really explain much about how trees are formed and stuff like that.
Nice design and educational story about trees. November 15, 2004

What first caught my attention, was the bright textured orange cover. Simple, but beautiful.
The illustrations are collages of real objects, leafs, and colorful paper cut outs.
The design is unique, with 2 of the pages having leaf-shaped holes on them.
The story is about a kid and his/her tree and the last 4 pages have very interesting information on trees, seeds, and even how to make a bird treat.
If your kids love trees and nature, this book is a must.
