Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Sorensen, Henri (illustrator). Hardcover. Award-winning author Alvin Tresselt's classic story about the cycle of life is beautifully illustrated and an excellent resource for families. The Gift of the Tree reveals the role of an ancient oak tree in the cycle of nature as it dies and returns to the earth, providing nourishment for new life all around it. Originally published in 1972 under the title The Dead Tree, this story about the cycle of nature has never been more timely. Henri Sorensen's exquisite paintings for this reillustrated edition capture all the beauty and power of the tree's transformations.As School Library Journal commented: "The interdependence of plant and animal life is clearly evident, including both those that seek its shelter and those that hasten the decaying process to prepare the soil for new life. The original text stands the test of time, reaching its audience with power and emotion as it directs attention to the forces of nature at work." Traces the life cycle of an oak tree and describes the animals that depend on it for shelter and food.
