The text follows an apple plant from seed to sprout to tree, including the development of blossoms, leaves, and fruit. The functions of roots, trunk, branches, and leaves are also discussed, as well as the seasonal changes in the tree. Schuett' s colorful paintings clearly illustrate topics explained in the text...and small, playful animals will help keep children involved in the topic. A good starting place for understanding trees.--<em>Booklist</em><br>
