A Family of Trees: My First Book of Forests

Peggy Thomas, Cookie Moon (illustrator)

This is a very attractive fold-out book about different types of forests and the animals that live in them, appealing to kids across quite a wide age range. Young kids can relate to the concept of forest families in which big and small trees play different roles. Older kids can engage with all the information in the extensive pull-out that features nine different forests around the world — from mountainous forest in Uganda to frozen spruce in Finland — introducing them to an intriguing variety of forest ecosystems.

Ages 2-6
