“The ABCs of Trees has crafted the important environmental message perfectly for a young audience. The illustrations are excellent and engaging. Most any child will see them and think “I can do that!” This is followed by a child looking more closely at trees and drawing them, strengthening their interest, if not fascination, in trees. Finally, the book has done an outstanding job of introducing solid words and concepts. Kids are sponges. This excellent little book gives them a lot to absorb.

“The ABCs of Trees is a fantastic contribution to start young children on the discovery of trees. Its approach covers important aspects of basic horticulture facts about trees. As a grandparent to nine, I thank Scott Zanon for using a simple but effective theme from which all my grandchildren can learn. And as a lifelong horticulture educator I also thank Scott for his contribution to recognizing the value of trees in our environment.”

“This book delivers an important message to help children understand the interdependence of people, trees, and the earth. The clever illustrations and introduction of basic facts is an accessible entry point for all elementary students. This book may foster student-led research on plant systems, and critical thinking about ways to solve problems in agriculture, health, and the environment.”

“The ABCs of Trees is an engaging non-fiction book to add to our collection.
