Come jump into the life and unique characteristics of trees. Trees reach for the sky, trees grow strong, trees give shade, trees give us a place to read and a place to play. Come learn more about the majestic world they create for us. 

 The strong point of Johnson's book is the awe-inspiring illustrations. Each new page compels the reader to go on a hike, climb a tree, or simply spend more time in nature. Each page has a different type of tree with a description of each tree in the back of the book. Along with beautiful illustrations, the poetic text invites the children to truly celebrate and embrace trees and nature as friends.
