Starting as a green acorn on a big oak tree, we read entries in the diary - one or two a year for a while, then every few years as things change. Planted by a squirrel who buried the acorn, it's growing in the shade of its grandmother, and getting bigger every year. We learn about photosynthesis, the different kinds of bark, even how an oak tree affects global warming!
Treemendous is so cute! I loved the sweet faces Mike Ciccotello put on the trees. Not too cartoony, just enough to make the tree personable, but it is still a tree. A great way to explore the life of a mighty oak, from seed to mature tree.
