This was my older son's favorite book for years when he was younger. It's about the circle of life---a tree gets old and falls over in a storm, and a new tree grows near it. The best part is the illustrations---they are extremely intricate and have millions of hidden little details, and almost everything has a face, including the trees. My husband didn't like this book as he felt it was a little morbid for young kids, but it never seemed to bother William! ( )
