Trees Up Close: The Beauty of Their Bark, Leaves, Flowers, and Seeds

Awesome book, large beautiful photos.

The photos in this book are amazing! I purchased this for my 5th grade son and the pictures are very complementary to other tree guides, as the photos are larger, showing more detail of bark, twigs, flowers and fruits at different phases, and also does a fair amount of comparisons which seems to make learning easier. Some of the trees included are Red Oak, White Oak, Red Maple, American Sycamore, American Beech, Sweetgum, Tulip Poplar, Black Walnut, Black Cherry, Gingko, American Elm, Flowering Dogwood, Black Locust and several more.
