This Caldecott
Medal winner is
about appreciating
what seems to be
so ordinary: a tree.
"A tree is nice because it has leaves,"
the author writes. "The leaves whisper
in the breeze all summer long. You can
climb trees, pick apples from trees,
swing from them and rest under them."
At the end, children are encouraged
to plant their own tree.
Dictionary of Nature (Dorling
Kindersley, 1994; out of print, but
available from Amazon for $4.50) by
David Burnie.
Breathtaking photos and easy-to-read
definitions draw in even the most disin-
terested reader.
The first chapters introduce children
to all aspects of our world (microorgan-
isms, plants, fungi, plant biology, ani-
mals and animal biology), while anoth-
er section focuses on the ecology and
conservation.

can add green food coloring to vanilla).
Then use appropriate food to make a
cherry or pineapple tree. And just in
case you forget it's winter: whipped top-
ping can serve as "snow."
7) Cut out the shape of a tree from a
piece of poster board. Each day during
the month of Shevat, paste a different
leaf (cut from construction paper) on
the tree, on which you have written
something great about family members.
8) With no warning, ask your child to
close his eyes, then see if he can name
any 10 things in the room that are
green.
9) As your gift to the trees, spend a few
minutes recycling items (like large
boxes) that normally you toss in the
trash.
10) Challenge your family to a smelling
contest. Everyone should find two items
that remind him or her of nature. You
use a piece of cedar, for example, or a
plant or an orange or perfume or spices.
Everyone closes his eyes and tries to
Guess the smell. ❑
