About This Book

A gentle celebration of all the wonderful things trees provide - shade on a hot day, leaves to rake in autumn, a trunk to lean against, and branches to climb. With alternating color and black-and-white illustrations, this Caldecott Medal winner captures the simple, essential joy of trees across the seasons.

Why We Love This

It's remarkable how a book this simple can feel this timeless. We love reading it before heading outside to appreciate our own favorite trees.
