This book could have been written about me! It is a delightful way for both adult & child to get to know the trees in their neighborhood for you see, trees are vitally important to our well-being, not only because they add seasonal beauty to our lives, they also process the air we breathe, making it sweet & fresh & healthy!Some of the trees Doris & Marilynn introduce us to are the Dogwood, the Hickory, the Spruce & the Sassafras. At the book's end we learn other words to use when we talk to trees such as: simple leaf, lichen, pollen, needles, catkins & more.This is a superb learning book which will grow with your children & provide truly important information on those sentinels & havens for all sorts of critters.My Mother Talks to Trees is funny & informative & will make a perfect gift for any one who loves trees, who wants to know more about trees & for any girl or mom!
