(3) K-3 Illustrated by Bob Staake. Each of two families--one in a developed, urban setting and the other in a developing, agrarian region--cultivates a tree whose rewards include better air quality and healthier soil. The global ramifications of a simple seed will be news to many young readers, who will enjoy tracking the growth of both the trees and the featured families, whose members age before readers' eyes in the crisp illustrations.
