The picture book In the Tree is a first introduction to trees and the animals who live in them, featuring double-layer lift-the-flaps for fun and surprises from writer Will Millard and illustrator Rachel Qiuqi. Explore the world of trees with five interactive woodland nature stories. Each simple "story" is set across a double-page spread and is revealed through double-layer lift-the-flaps. Watch an acorn grow into a mighty oak, a squirrel bury nuts to prepare for winter, a woodpecker search for insects, a bat nestle into a hollow tree, and more. Simple rhyming text paired with educational bold-faced sight words help young readers grow their vocabulary, making the story accessible and educational while encouraging kids to stop and observe the natural world.
