Un Árbol Es Hermoso


Trees are beautiful. They fill up the sky. If you have a tree, you can climb up its trunk, roll in its leaves, or hang a swing from one of its limbs. Cows and cats can nap in the shade of a tree. Birds can make nests in the branches. A tree is good to have around. A tree is nice.

Factoid: A Tree Is Nice By Janice May Udry is the 1957 Caldecott Medal winning book that speaks simply and elegantly of the many pleasures a tree provides, why trees are so good to have around as it describes the delights to be had in, with, or under a tree. Also available in Spanish. Janice May Udry is the author of several books for children including The Moon Jumpers and Let's Be Enemies.
