As an Oak Tree Grows*

The reader witnesses the growth of an oak tree and how humans transform the landscape over a 200 time period (1770's-2000) (twenty-five year increments)
A time line runs along the bottom of each page and the current year is in bolder font.
A wonderful way to examine history and how times change!

A pull out poster is included-On one side is a stump with rings.  Coming out of the rings are circles featuring significant historical events/inventions that changed America.  On the other side various activities-life cycle of the tree, facts about oak trees, sequencing activity, search/find for objects in the book, a season matching activity and a coloring page.
*Highly recommend.
