Award: Caldecott Medal 1957
This picture book talks about how a tree is nice and all the things that one can do with having a tree. Simplistic language engages young children in what a tree is good for—climbing, shade, pretending, and pride in having grown one, are discussed within the text.
The illustrations are color and black and white sketches, which actually holds your attention as they go back and forth between the two. The black and white sketches have a lot of detail showing not only the aspect about a tree mentioned within the text, but also the surrounding area.
