The big book of trees

The world of trees is colourful, diverse and fascinating: Why do their leaves change colour in autumn? How do the roots manage to suck the water out of the soil and how does it reach the smallest leaf? Why are forests said to be the lungs of our earth, and how does photosynthesis actually work? In this beautifully illustrated non-fiction book, children between the ages of 7 and 12 learn about the different types of trees and it explains their important role on our planet. The book for the curious, budding naturalists and forest explorers.
