Posada writes a non-fiction foray into the power of trees. It focuses on leaves and how they grow, types of leaves, colors and more. Her illustrations are pretty and very realistic looking with layers of leaves even though they look hand cut. The science in the book is simple and powerful and make it an important addition to a school collection.
I loved the unevenness of the leaves and all the color. The illustrations were fun and the font made it appear like a child had done the book to some degree. It fills the learning about trees and leaves gap while sharing vocabulary and teaching text features.
