From a sprouting acorn to a tree that’s hundreds of years old, this beautiful lift-the-flap book gives lots of charming first information about a tree for young children. Children can find out what trees need to grow, what animals and insects live in a tree, what happens to a tree through the seasons, and how long an oak tree can live for.
Growing up in North West England and in Germany, Anna wrote plays about talking animals, and stories about naughty children, and drew on every available surface. After school, she did an Art Foundation course, then a degree in German Literature & Philosophy at Oxford University. In 1998 she found her perfect job at Usborne in London, writing about everything from curious penguins to trips to the Moon. Usborne.com
So good. And so entertaining. As an adult, I found it excited to read this kind of book. My son, who loves bugs and stuff, loves this book so much. Usborne books never fail.
