<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Relates the history of the Endicott Pear tree from when it was brought to Massachusetts Bay Colony in the 1630s, through fire, hurricanes, and vandalism, to the present day.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In the 1630s in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, a Puritan settler planted a pear tree--the first pear tree in America. More than a century later, the tree still bore fruit, impressing a famous poet and one of the first US presidents. The pear tree survived hurricanes, fire, and vandalism, and today, more than 350 years after it was first planted, it's alive and strong, and clones of it grow all around the US. This is the amazing true story of the Endicott Pear tree, and how it grew up with our nation.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>The illustrations are charming and the text is pleasantly readable.--<em>School Library Journal</em></p><br><br><p><strong>The Original Art 2020</strong></p><br>
