A Tree for Emmy

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Tatjana Mai-Wyss. Emmy loves all types of trees--especially the mimosa tree, which Gramma declares is like Emmy: "stubborn and strong and a little bit wild" (a metaphor that, somewhat tediously, carries throughout the story). To Emmy's chagrin, she can't buy a mimosa tree, but ends up planting a seedling from Gramma's tree instead. Mixed-media watercolors illustrate this gentle story of a nature-loving gal.
