"This reillustrated book on the science of trees is well designed for preschool and early-primary-grade children. The text follows an apple plant from seed to sprout to tree, including the development of blossoms, leaves, and fruit. The functions of roots, trunk, branches, and leaves are also discussed, as well as the seasonal changes in the tree. Schuett' s colorful paintings clearly illustrate topics explained in the text...and small, playful animals will help keep children involved in the topic. A good starting place for understanding trees." — Booklist

"Glowing new illustrations featuring a multiracial cast of children adorn this classic Let's Read and Find Out Science primer. Using plain language and short sentences, Bulla follows an apple tree from seed to maturity, introducing readers to leaves, flowers, branches, roots, and fruits." — Kirkus Reviews

"Concepts such as water intake are emphasized with arrows indicating its  route within the plant. The charming paint­ings, many of which are full-page and large enough for comfortable group sharing, depict numerous outdoor scenes peopled by chil­dren of various ethnic backgrounds. An ap­pended section includes instructions for a transpiration experiment and suggests a method for measuring the age of a tree." — School Library Journal
