Illustrated by
Kendra Binney.
It is particularly satisfying when the size of the book also reflects the subject of the title. The Tree of Life by Nalini Nadkarni, illustrated by Kendra Binney, with a height of about thirteen inches, provides profiles of trees around the world, including the banyan, dragon blood, and baobab. Make sure older kids discover this gem, with its rich, lush details and enticing facts underneath delicate flaps.
