El roble: La aventura de vivir

Featuring tremendously detailed and realistic illustrations, this educational and charming book presents a grand old oak tree that explains to children what its life is like, season by season. It also describes its relationship with the other creatures that live in and around its trunk and branches. Most poignantly, however, it details its long and occasionally tumultuous relationship with humans, whom it presents as its greatest obstacle to a long life. Children will not only learn basic scientific facts about one of the world’s most important and ubiquitous trees, they will also gain an appreciation for the importance of conservation.
