From the acclaimed author of Over and Under the Snow, Kate
Messner!
Now in paperback, Tree of Wonder is an exciting introduction to the
biodiversity of the rainforest biome.
From two Great Green Macaws to 1,024 Leaf-cutter Ants, readers will
delight in counting each animal that makes a home in the heart of the
rainforest, where life multiplies again and again in the shade of just
one almendro tree.
- An eye-opening way of visualizing numbers
- Features playful, forest-themed word problems
- A lush and fascinating story
Deep in the forest, in the warm-wet green, one almendro tree grows,
stretching its branches toward the sun--in and under those branches, all
sustained by one tree, thousands of rainforest creatures are living.
Count each one as life multiplies again and again in this book about
the rainforest's abundant beauty, and the wonderful multiplicity of
life.
- A stunning read for kids who can't get enough of the rainforest and
all the animals living in it
- Equal parts educational and beautiful, this book is perfect for
parents and grandparents, librarians, and math, literature, and science
teachers
- A great gift for kids 5 to 8 years old who love nature, rainforests,
animals, and learning more about the world
- Add it to the shelf with books like The Big Book of Bugs by Yuval
Zommer, The Animal Book by Lonely Planet Kids, and A Butterfly Is
Patient by Dianna Aston.
