What are Trees for? is a simple celebration of the tree. A cheerful, whimsical picture book introducing young children to some everyday scenarios where trees play a role. Written using friendly, lyrical singsong text, What are Trees for? is sure to entertain young children when read playfully aloud. The bright, colorful, lively illustrations, inspired by artist Mel Hioki, fill each page with an innocent sense of joy and fun. Trees are all around us, yet sometimes we take their presence for granted. Hopefully, this book will encourage children and parents alike to pause more often and look closely at the wonder of a tree.
