The First Book of Trees

Description

America is a land of trees. They grow almost everywhere in our country. Most of us see them so often that we sometimes forget how important they are. Thousands and thousands of things come from trees. Right this minute you may be sitting in a chair made partly of wood from a tree. You may live in a wooden house. Perhaps you are wearing a rayon blouse. That was made from wood treated in a special way. The paper in this book was made from wood pulp, which comes from trees. You may have a camera and like to take pictures. The film you use was made from wood. Perhaps you had an orange for breakfast this morning. That came from a tree. Apples, nuts, maple sugar, hickory baseball bats… you can think of many things that we wouldn’t have if there were no trees.

The First Book of Trees is an engaging and educational introduction to the fascinating world of trees, perfect for young readers interested in nature and science. Author M.B. Cormack uses clear and concise language to explain the different types of trees and their unique characteristics, from the towering redwoods of California to the spindly birches of the Northern forests. The book includes beautiful illustrations helping to bring the diverse range of trees to life.
