Editorial Review:

Product Description:


Trees are beautiful. They fill up the sky. If you have a tree, you can climb up its trunk, roll in its leaves, or hang a swing from one of its limbs. Cows and babies can nap in the shade of a tree. Birds can make nests in the branches. A tree is good to have around. A tree is nice.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not the best book about trees
This book seems very old-fashioned. The pages alternate on color and black & white. Also, it would be better if it offered some scientific reason for why trees are nice along with the whimsical, children-playing reasons.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - trees ARE nice
What a joyful book. A wonderful paeon to trees and the wonder they can inspire in kids, adults, the reader.

The picture shows a farm, with one tree in a field, and a ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A charming book
A great little book about the beauty of trees. My girl loves trees and she was drawn by the artwork of this book. She especially like a group playing in a tree and the one of the cows resting in the shade.

It's a simple story that talks about the beauty and use of trees. The artwork is far more interesting and as others have mentioned, it won an award for it.

My daughter would love a tree fort. She spoke of it again after seeing the kids in the tree. Unfortunately, ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Choppy sentences with drab illustrations.
Short choppy sentences with one page in color and the next in black and white left me wishing this book was done differently. Loving nature, I wanted to really enjoy this story, but I didn't. There were facts thrown in haphazardly with thoughts and there was absolutely no reason for the black and white harsh transition every other page into color. I just didn't get the concept the illustrator was trying to portray. I did like that the pages were made out of paper that felt like it was recycled ... Read More
