The ABCs of Trees is a short educational piece about trees, such as their types, mode of food production, relationships with other organisms like insects, methods of maintenance like mulching, and many others, including creative additives like "Planta."

Scott A. Zanon holds academic qualifications in agronomy and horticulture. I appreciate him for putting his wealth of experience in these fields into a simple piece that not only educates children about what they need to know about trees but also encourages them to contribute to making the planet Earth "greener" and more livable.

I was impressed by how Scott arranged this book. As indicated in the book's title, the exercise runs from A to Z. It was interesting reading about the variety of knowledge about trees passed down to children through each of the letters. Also, it's commendable that the exercise is organised in a simple and fun manner.

Moreso, I liked that the author went on to explain each of the concepts represented by each letter. Here, we are not being presented with the usual "A is for Apple!" The author takes a step further to explain what that "apple" (for example) is. For example, Scott represented the letter C for "chlorophyll" and went on to explain its function in the process of photosynthesis.

Each letter of the alphabet and the first letter of the word representing it are bolded, and that was great. It helps with recognition and emphasis, aiding in smooth reading and easier comprehension of the book. The accompanying illustrations are wonderful and give children a clue as to what is being talked about, as can be seen in the painting of "xylem" on page 27.

With just one grammatical error, I think this book was professionally edited, and based on the aforementioned positive aspects, I am delighted to rate it five out of five stars. There is no reason to rate this book lower because I didn't dislike anything in it. I recommend The ABCs of Trees to readers between three and nine years old.

After successfully downloading a free sample from Amazon, I got the chance to read the first ten pages of this book, Snatched Up to Heaven for Kids. I also enjoyed reading the OBC website's official review of the book. The review provided a thorough summary of the subject matter of this book. Two young girls are seen in the book's first few pages. The narrator of the novel introduces the reader to Emma and Bella, two girls who had everything a little girl could ask for in the same few pages. I read a lot, but I don't read novels for kids. Therefore, I'll pass on this. I won't purchase it and read it through. I'll instead recommend it to anybody who enjoys reading children's novels, especially kids. This book appears to have been edited by a competent person. This is due to the fact that the first few pages I read were free of grammatical or spelling errors. In the few pages I read, the book's cover was the feature I liked the most. It was beautifully designed, and I believe it fits the genre. In the first few pages I read, there was not a single element that I didn't love. I don't think this book needs to be improved in any way; it looks to have been well-written and edited. My choice of whether to buy and complete reading this book was not influenced by the magnificent cover, the official review, or the editorial reviews.

Children will learn new facts about ABC letters in this book. Could this book have beautiful illustrations for kids? It should be a plus. Your review is lovely.
