Summary: My kids loved it! Interesting tidbits
Review: It has interesting facts about historic uses; native American, colonial settlers and pioneers of the westward movement. Also covers the many ways trees are vital to wildlife. My kids liked the maps of the trees native habitats. The detailed art work gave a good representation of the trees.

Summary: Children and trees have a special bonding
Review: My Favorite Tree by Diane Iverson features specific gifts trees have for children. It inspires me to write a family book on how trees have had special meaning for me in my life. However, her illustrations and discriptions would be difficult to match. As it includes trees from many areas of the country I would think all children and adults could identify with this beautiful book -- which by the way includes detailed facts also.
