This week most classes are hearing books about trees. Many grades study the plant life cycle around this time of year, and many books about trees emphasize the often lengthy scope of a tree's life. For instance, a new book in our collection, As An Oak Tree Grows, by G. Brian Karas, uses the long life of an oak tree to trace 200 years of history. Really we have quite a few charming, interesting books about trees--it's always a fun theme.
