How Trees Sustain Our Planet

Book #8 in the Orca Footprints series

By Nikki Tate

Most of us see trees every day, and too often we take them for granted. Trees provide us with everything from food, fuel and shelter to oxygen and filtered water. Deep Roots celebrates the central role trees play in our lives, no matter where we live. Each chapter focuses on a basic element- water, air, fire and earth- and explores the many ways in which we need trees to keep our planet healthy and livable. From making rain to producing fruit to feeding fish, trees play an integral role in maintaining vibrant ecosystems all over the world. Facts about trees and hands-on activities throughout help readers discover ways to get to know our giant neighbors better. 32 pages

"This celebration of the roles trees have in a variety of ecosystems unfolds according to their interplay with the elements of earth, air, water, and fire. Beautiful and intriguing color photos from a broad array of sources and diverse locations give readers ample visual details of a wide variety of species and tree habitats around the globe." -Booklist (Grades 3-6)

"... a solid foundation, a taproot to appreciating the incredible diversity and contribution of trees to our everyday lives." -Kirkus Reviews (Ages 8-12)
