Publisher's Synopsis
The remarkable web of plants and animals living around a single old fir tree takes on a life of its own in this stunningly illustrated story. Carol Reed-Jones' repetitive cumulative verse - a poetic technique that children universally enjoy - aptly portrays the amazing ways in which the inhabitants of the forest depend upon one another for survival. Christopher Canyon's memorable, full-colour paintings manage to be both magical and true to life. Complete with a guide to the forest creatures and their interrelationships this book is a valuable learning tool as well as fun for kids. Ages 4-10
