Discover the secret world of an oak tree in this lovely book filled with beautiful, detailed photographs. How does the tree get water from the soil? How does it make food using sunshine?

The engaging text is perfect for building an enjoyment of non-fiction reading and for introducing young readers to the lives and life-cycles of plants.
