Description
Excerpt from The First Book of Trees
America is a land of trees. They grow almost everywhere in our country. Most of us see them so often that we some times forget how important they are. Thousands and thousands of things come from trees. Right this minute you may be sitting in a chair made partly of wood from a tree. You may live in a wooden house. Perhaps you are wearing a rayon blouse. That was made from wood treated in a special way. The paper in this book was made'' from wood pulp, which comes from trees. You may have a camera and like to take pictures. The film you Use was made from wood. Perhaps you had an orange for breakfast this morn ing. That came from a tree. Apples, nuts, maple sugar, hickory baseball bats you can think of many things that we wouldn''t have if there were no trees.
