The Busy Tree, Hardcover/Jennifer Ward

Spectacular illustrations rendered in oil paint, and a rhyming text that describes a tree's activities from its roots to its branches, introduce young readers to the amazing activities that go on in a tree. Acorns nibbled by chipmunks, ants scurrying across a trunk, a spider spinning a web, leaves -breathing out air for all to breathe in---everything adds up to a -busy tree- for all to -come and see.-
