Opening sentence
Can you see the forest on this misty-morning mountain? Can you see where the tree stands?
Tree tells the story of a Mountain Ash; a tree that lives for more than 300 years. Marrying deep scientific research, lyrical language, and stunning illustrations, the book shares how the tree grows and the part it plays for the animals who live in the bush with it. This would support a unit on life cycles and habitats with illustrations showing the variety of creatures who live in and around the tree.
