...but I have to tell you that David Burnie rocks! I was looking for an earlier edition of this book (Tree) that we got from the library to see if I could get a used copy, and I am thrilled that DK came out with a new edition. My daughter is 5, and so a lot of these DK books are too "busy" for her. However, this book by David Burnie was just right. (Of course, I read the text aloud.) The photography held her attention well, and all together we spent a couple hours over the course of a week looking at this book where she asked me a MILLION questions. Burnie covers everything from what kind of seeds different trees generate, to how logs are fashioned into boards at a saw mill, to how acid rain "burns" forests. On the other hand, this book would not be too young for a jr. high or high schooler who was looking for some general information about trees. The text is not at all baby-ish or dumbed-down. I learned a lot myself.
