National Audubon Society First Field Guide - Trees

I bought this book for my preschool grandchildren that I care for part time. I had purchased the shell book at a garage sale & they loved it. So I went online to find other book in the same series. It is something that I can enjoy with them together.

Audubon for young kids

Like the other "first guides" this book on trees is both a study guide and a field guide. The study guide explains the differences between broadleaf and needle trees, seeds and cones of trees, how a forest comes to be, why forest fires can be helpful (some cones are triggered to release seeds only in intense heat) and more. The guide is full color beautiful photos of the most likely to be found trees on the left page, and similar trees with smaller pictures on the right. The right size and content for young kids, not too much info to make it confusing, but enough to get a fire of curiosity going.
