A Tree Is Nice (HC)

Trees are beautiful. They fill up the sky. If you have a tree, you can climb up its trunk, roll in its leaves, or hand 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. 

This ode to trees is a Caldecott Medal recipient and a wonderful compliment to a non-fiction title on trees. We recommend Be a Tree by Maria Gianferrari.
